Thus, we investigated the occurrence of recursive structures in signed narratives in Libras, signed by three deaf subjects and available in the national corpus of Libras. With the ELAN software, we conducted annotation, transcription and data analysis, which made it possible to identify recursive markers, such as manual forms in the production of elements signed by both hands simultaneously, indicating manual grammatical overlap, manual and non-manual forms produced simultaneously, with facial and body signs and expressions being used as elements of embedding, as well as non-manual forms (facial and body expressions). In addition, we also identified facial and body expressions that seem to play a recursive role, such as: upper body inclination; upper body/shoulder elevation; role play; head movement; eye gaze; elevation or contraction of eyebrows and eyes; mouth movement, and lips and chin lift. Finally, we have found that non-manual markers were more frequent in this analysis. Resumo em Libras Nas línguas de sinais, principalmente em Libras, há pouca pesquisa que investigue e descreva a manifestação de recursividade. Assim, investiga-se aqui a ocorrência desse fenômeno em narrativas em Libras, sinalizadas por três surdos, disponíveis no corpus nacional de Libras. Com o software ELAN, realizou-se a anotação, a transcrição e a análise de dados, o que nos possibilitou identificar e registrar marcadores recursivos presentes nessas narrativas. Percebeu-se a manifestação recursiva de forma manual com produção de elementos sinalizados; forma manual com produção de elementos sinalizados pelas duas mãos simultaneamente, indicando sobreposição gramatical manual; forma manual e não manual, produzidas simultaneamente, tendo sinais e expressões não manuais como elementos de encaixamento; e forma não manual (expressões faciais e corporais). Além disso, as expressões não manuais identificadas que parecem exercer papel recursivo são a inclinação de tronco, a elevação de tronco/ombros, a incorporação de personagem, o movimento de cabeça, o direcionamento de olhar, a elevação ou contração de sobrancelhas e olhos e também o movimento de boca, lábios e a elevação de queixo. Finalmente, destacamos que os marcadores não manuais apresentaram maior ocorrência na análise realizada. Facultad de Lenguas.

Abstract in Libras
In sign languages, especially in Libras, there is a lack of research investigating and describing the manifestation of recursion. Thus, we investigated the occurrence of recursive structures in signed narratives in Libras, signed by three deaf subjects and available in the national corpus of Libras. With the ELAN software, we conducted annotation, transcription and data analysis, which made it possible to identify recursive markers, such as manual forms in the production of elements signed by both hands simultaneously, indicating manual grammatical overlap, manual and non-manual forms produced simultaneously, with facial and body signs and expressions being used as elements of embedding, as well as non-manual forms (facial and body expressions). In addition, we also identified facial and body expressions that seem to play a recursive role, such as: upper body inclination; upper body/shoulder elevation; role play; head movement; eye gaze; elevation or contraction of eyebrows and eyes; mouth movement, and lips and chin lift. Finally, we have found that non-manual markers were more frequent in this analysis. |
