Vogais mediais pretônicas no noroeste paulista: o papel das variáveis sociais no alçamento vocálico

In this paper, we investigate to which extent social variables act on the medial vowel raising phenomenon in the Portuguese variety spoken in São José do Rio Preto, a city in the countryside of São Paulo State. Based on the theoretical-methodological model of Sociolinguistics Variacionist, we analyse speech samples from this city, the Iboruna database. The results show that the vowel raising applies: (i) for both men and women; (ii) in all age groups and, (iii) in all levels of formal education. Taking into consideration the results of analysis of social and linguistic variables selected by the program GoldVarb, we find evidences that vowel raising phenomenon is not sensitive to social pressures in the speech community studied, which allows us to affirm that it is not a phenomenon socially stigmatized and the variation in its implementation is more strongly subject to linguistic variables.

Atos discursivos interativos nas variedades do português falado

This paper aims to analyze and to characterize the structure of some linguistic expressions that, in the view of Functional Discourse Grammar (HENGEVELD; MACKENZIE, 2008), are called Interactive Acts because they show the Speaker, the Addressee and the Illocution positions filled in. To do so, we analyse data composed of representative texts of Portuguese spoken in Portugal, in Brazil, in African countries (those that have Portuguese as official language) and in East Timor

Estratégias de relativização nas variedades lusófonas

This paper, which examines restrictive and non-restrictive constructions in the Lusophone varieties, assumes that Portuguese has a set of relativization strategies that are recognized by typological linguistics as constructions that define related groups of languages. Thus, it is possible that these different strategies, when employed by the same linguistic system, not really constitute variants of the same syntactic variable but the speaker’s actual choices facing the necessity to perform different social and discursive functions.

A tradução de Invisible Man, de Ralph Ellison: o jogo entre racialidade e integracionismo

Relating the surface of a translated text to discourse is one of the focuses in the connection between Translation Studies and African- -American literature. In this respect, “Invisible Man”, by Ralph Ellison, and its Brazilian translation, by Márcia Serra, present themselves as material for analyzing contexts which evoke a sense of community and racial identity. Therefore, this paper centers precisely upon nuances in meaning of the linguistic displays of bonding and race. It could be noticed that these aspects were less marked in the translation, whereas the integrationist project featured in the novel was to a certain extent rewritten in words that called forth a sense of racial dichotomy. Thus, the translation displays at once the non-racialized perspective peculiar to the Brazilian view of race and assumptions in regard to the perspective of the African-American Other on race relations.

Hipersegmentação de palavras: análise de aspectos prosódicos e discursivos

This paper deals with hypersegmentation of words that are characterized by the unconventional employment of a graphical boundary (using a white space or hyphen) within the limits of the word, as in "em bora" (“although”, using a white space), and "chama-da" (“called”, using the hyphen). In a study conducted on these data, we identified motivations arising not only from their literate nature but also from the morphosyntactic and prosodic information. We showed that there are linguistic features recurrent in these registers of word boundaries, based on the analysis of texts produced by the students who attended the last four years of elementary school in a public school in São Paulo. In this paper, we advance on this study by selecting data whose characteristics do not match those which were recurrent. We will argue that the unconventional presence of boundary within the written word limits may be interpreted as representing prosodic configurations (of intonation and rhythm nature) which contribute to the construction of the relation of meanings in the text.

Construções relativas nas variedades do português: uma interpretação discursivo-funcional

This work examines relative constructions in Portuguese varieties based on the principle that Portuguese has a set of relativization strategies that are recognized in typological linguistics as constructions that define related groups of languages. It is postulated that these different strategies, when employed by the same linguistic system, do not really constitute variants of the same syntactic variable, but they are the speaker’s actual choices facing the necessity to perform different social and discursive functions.

A Subfunção Interacional de checagem na Gramática Textual-Interativa

Na Gramática Textual-interativa, os Marcadores Discursivos são definidos mediante a combinação de traços linguísticos referentes a um conjunto de parâmetros de análise. Um desses parâmetros diz respeito à função que as expressões linguísticas exercem em termos de orientação da interação. Neste trabalho, discutimos um aspecto da função de orientação da interação, procurando contribuir para tornar cada vez mais precisa a definição de Marcadores Discursivos da Gramática Textual-interativa. Especificamente, discutimos a subfunção de Checagem, aqui entendida como uma das possíveis formas de particularização da função mais geral de orientação da interação. A esse respeito, dentre outras questões que abordamos, destacamos a natureza retórica como aspecto central das expressões de Checagem e analisamos a relação entre a subfunção de Checagem e o estatuto de Marcador Discursivo, procurando demonstrar que praticamente todas as expressões com essa subfunção constituem também, necessariamente, Marcadores Discursivos.

Uso de corpora em aulas de prática de redação de língua inglesa

This study aims at discussing aspects related to learner corpora and linguistic features found in texts written by English learners based on the use of collocations in text production. For this research, we analyzed collocations with the verb “to have” and with the nouns “prejudice” and “regret”.

Legendagem e dublagem: diferenças na tradução do humor

This work aims on an approach concerning on Translation Theories, as well as the translational difficulties, the linguistic barriers with which the translator must know how to deal, the role of the translator as a conscious subject of his work while creating new texts and producing meanings. We will develop a discussion focused on the audiovisual translation practice which means the translation for subtitles and dubbings. It will be shown the translation process on both modalities and also the issue about the translation of humor in each of them, as the translator must use his translational skill, cultural and linguistic knowledge and creativity, not only to circumvent the rules imposed by the audiovisual translation market, but also to be able to create a new language for each character presented in the original material, so that the translation in Portuguese language may contain proper traces of humor from the Brazilian culture. Our main goal is an attempt to explain the reason for so many questions from the public who does not know the rules in the market for subtitling and dubbing translation and sometimes criticize the work of the translator if they realize any ‘loss of information’ or ‘a translation very poorly done’. Theories and arguments which prove that no translation is done badly, but it goes through recreations and modifications whenever it is necessary will be presented. By the explanation of this translation process, citation of translators who work in this area telling about their experiences and selected examples of translations from the ‘Everybody hates Chris’ sitcom, we hope to reflect and clarify such doubts.

Do papel para a tela: aspectos enunciativos no reconto infantil

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir aspectos enunciativos em reconto infantil produzido por crianças na faixa etária de 07 a 09 anos, em contexto escolar, em suportes distintos, a saber, no papel e na tela do computador com acesso à internet. De um ponto de vista teórico, que privilegia estudos da Enunciação e do Discurso (BAKHTIN, 1997; CORRÊA, 2004), procura-se refletir sobre modificações no texto/discurso dada a mudança do suporte material, segundo a hipótese de que, ao enunciar no papel ou na tela, as diferentes projeções que o escrevente faz da imagem do outro, da de si próprio e da dos suportes utilizados no processo de textualização podem ser investigadas na relação sujeito-linguagem. Metodologicamente, este trabalho apoia-se no paradigma indiciário, o qual permite conceber fenômenos da linguagem como indícios representativos de fenômenos mais gerais. A análise, de cunho qualitativo-interpretativo, privilegia, portanto, o estudo de marcas linguísticas que indiciam diferentes projeções de imagens que os escreventes produzem com diferentes interlocutores em suportes distintos.
