Some information about pounds you might not know

There is no consensus on “who” invented sign language, but we do know that it was created in France during the 18th century. Here in Brazil, “LIBRAS – Brazilian Sign Language” was recognized as a language by Law 10,436 in 2002.

De acordo com informações encontradas no IBGE – Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia Estatística, no ano de 2021, temos 5% da população do Brasil composta por pessoas surdas, o que representa aproximadamente 10 milhões de pessoas.

Of this number, approximately 2.7 million individuals are profoundly deaf, that is, they cannot hear or hear absolutely nothing. Based on this information, can you understand the importance of a Libras translation app?

What are the advantages of learning Brazilian Sign Language (Libras)?

Breaking down the communication barrier with deaf people is a good reason, especially if you have a deaf family member. There are many more advantages than you can imagine. Anyone who dominates pounds is considered bilingual, you know?

Those who learn Libras have more job opportunities (there is a lot of demand and little supply of professionals). Those who know pounds have a more agile reasoning than the others. In addition, you will master something that few know, which gives you exclusivity.

Some fun reasons to learn are: communicating underwater, with closed windows, in crowded rooms and in the cinema without making a sound, and counting from 0 to 10 with just one hand. Find out about some Libras translation app options.

ProDeaf: a very interesting app

ProDeaf is a program that recognizes the voice through your cell phone, capturing the message and converting it into sign language (made by an avatar), thus allowing the deaf person to understand, in real time, what is being said .
