SUMMARY:

This work was developed within the Translation research scope and Sociodiscursive Practices of the Graduate Program in Translation Studies at the University of Brasília (POSTRAD/UnB). Its object of study is the terms of the content of Defensive Driving (DD), one of the theoretical requirements for obtaining the National Driver's License (CNH), aiming at the suggestion of a bilingual glossary in the Portuguese Language and Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) pair. The target audience is candidates for Deaf drivers, as well as translators, interpreters, teachers, and other interested people in the area. The specific objectives of the research lie in: i) carrying out a bibliographical research on the Traffic Legislation in order to trace the trajectory of the Deaf citizen's right to drive; ii) survey how information is presented on the Brazilian Traffic Departments websites , seeking accessibility for the Deaf public, and whether there is bilingual material to promote access; and iii) highlight the process stages for obtaining a driver's license in the Federal District (DF) focusing on the theoretical-technical course content, demonstrating the importance of DD in everyday traffic. The theoretical foundation was divided into five topics, which address: translation and the Brazilian Sign Language: a look of struggle!; Translation Studies and Terminology: historical aspects; Libras Terminology: brief postgraduate research; bilingual glossary: concept and structure of a terminographic work focused on Libras; Corpus Linguistics (CL) as a facilitator and ratifier in the extraction of terms. The methodological path that defines the scope of the glossary was divided into four stages: i) identification of the object of study and target audience; ii) selection of terms in Portuguese based on the LC using the AntConc tool; iii) informants selection, through the application of questionnaires with DETRAN's and qualified Deaf people, in addition to identifying terms in media materials; and iv) preparation and organization of terminology sheets (FT) in Portuguese and Libras. In response to the collection, 145 candidate terms were located, and 10 terms were selected to suggest a pilot project macro and microstructure for a bilingual glossary. This research does not address the creation of term signals. These term-signals come from the informants. This study is part of a project that is underway at DETRAN/DF called “Libras no Trânsito”. It is expected that this proposal will provide support for the preparation of teaching materials suitable for the Deaf public. Thus, we highlight the importance of using visual resources in Libras and written Portuguese as a second language, to promote the effective training of this driver. Finally, improvements are sought for the Deaf linguistic accessibility in the environment of the Department of Transit of the Federal District, in addition to encouraging new research in the area.
