Disjunction in LSC presents the same main non-manual markers as conjunction: body lean/head tilt. In order to distinguish conjunction and disjunction, other non-manual markers such as squinted eyes, furrowed eyebrows and both lips curved down are obligatory. Moreover, in LSC the mouthing /o/‘or’ is very productive. Below we can see an example of these non-manual markers and of a full sentence.
Non-manual marker /o/ ‘or’ mouthing
fe, sq
ht-left /o/ ht-left, bl-b
marina work[contra] vacations.
‘Marina will work or will go on vacation.’
