Section 5: The Role of Context in Each Language

-

 


Written Spanish:


Context in written Spanish is provided through the use of adjectives, adverbs, punctuation, and sentence structure. For example, in the sentence "El perro ladró fuerte" (The dog barked loudly), the word fuerte adds context to how the action was performed.




LSE:

Context in LSE is provided by a combination of signs, facial expressions, and body language. For example, a signer can raise their eyebrows to indicate a question, or use facial expressions to show emotions such as surprise or sadness.

 CONCLUSION In conclusion, both written Spanish and LSE serve as powerful tools for communication, each with its own strengths.

Understanding these differences and similarities fosters better communication and inclusivity for both hearing and Deaf communities.
