Estudo da variação linguística em sala de aula: uma avaliação das atitudes linguísticas dos alunos com relação aos traços graduais da língua portuguesa /

Abstract

Linguistic variation is an inherent characteristic of all languages and manifests itself in the speech of all people, regardless of education level or social class, in all varieties, including the so-called prestigious norms. According to Bortoni (2004), this variation occurs along a continuum, manifested in the gradual traits that, according to Bagno (2007), appear in the Brazilian General Vernacular, for example through monotongação and assimilation. This social variation, according to Faraco (2015), is “the real issue to be faced”. Thus, the present work proposes to verify the student's perception of the variation that occurs along the urbanization continuum and what attitudes they manifest towards the phenomenon. For this purpose, were chosen the linguistic forms dinhêro, diêro - as representatives of monotongação and soltano, as representative of assimilation; since they refer to gradual traits of the language appearing, therefore, in the stigmatized and prestigious varieties. This research uses the assumptions of Educational Sociolinguistics found in Bortoni-Ricardo (2004, 2005), Variationist Sociolinguistics, according to Labov (2008), Bagno (2004, 2007, 2019, 2020) and Pedagogy of Linguistic Variation, according to Cyranka (2007), Faraco (2008), among others. The methodological procedures consist of the application of perception and attitude tests, in order to know the students' linguistic behavior.
