SUMMARY:

The basic color terms were defined based on criteria proposed by the linguists anthropologists Berlin and Kay (B&K), in 1969, and resulted in the following colors, as in Brazilian Portuguese: white, black, red, green, yellow, blue, brown , purple, pink, orange and gray. Each of these terms is the best example of each color category, as they name these categories. Although, the debate about categorizing basic terms for colors is wide with oral languages, we still have little information related to sign languages (cf. Zeshan & Sagara, 2016, with the main studies on color terminology in sign languages). In this sense, this research intends to investigate the Brazilian Sign Language and how much it follows the restrictions and universal repertoire proposed by the B&K Theory on categorization of basic terms for colors and traits of divergence and convergence with the Portuguese language - as well as if this language interferes in this categorization of Libras because they are two languages that coexist - filling, albeit partially, a late gap in linguistic studies. This is an experimental descriptive typological research, in which two languages of different modality will be investigated, namely: Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) and Portuguese language. The proposed study is unprecedented in Brazil, mainly because it intends to make use of experimental techniques and with a large sample from the description, survey and analysis of data based on the theoretical-methodological assumptions of Hollman and Uuskula (2012) and Hollman (2010).
