Disponível em: https://www.revistas.ufg.br/revsinal/article/view/59230.2448-0797http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/20523The history of deaf people is marked by linguistic and cultural prejudices that unfolded in innumerable communicational and attitudinal barriers. Faced with this reality, each official document that addresses the issue of sign language is generally received as a victory and a breakthrough for the deaf community. This work assesses the most recent official publication on the subject - Decree 9.656 / 2018, which amends Decree 5,626 / 2005. In order to do that, a qualitative, documentary research will be carried out. The analysis of the data will be anchored in the theoretical basis of the French Discourse Analysis. The results indicate that the publication allowed the enunciator to create the image of concern for deaf subjects. The analysis also showed that some of the measures listed were already in previous legislation.porAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/SurdosLíngua de SinaisAnálise do discursoDeafSign languageDiscourse analysisArtigohttps://doi.org/10.5216/rs.v4.59230
