langue des signes québécoise; LSQ : La langue des signes québécoise est considérée comme une langue, au même titre que le français ou l'anglais. En effet, tout comme ces derniers, les langues signées peuvent être décrites en termes de structures phonologique, morphologique, syntaxique, discursive, pragmatique et sémantique. Les désignations «langage des signes québécois» et «langage des signes du Québec» sont donc à éviter. 5, record 2, French, - langue%20des%20signes%20qu%C3%A9b%C3%A9coise
