Alfabetização: o texto e o contexto

This paper is the result of a research about literacy concept from official documents, dictionaries and linguists. As an expansion of literacy concept was observed through last century, this investigation searched for an opposite way, in other words, a contraction of the literacy concept in order to clarify its nature and this way to be the starting point for literacy teachers. The best way to literacy happens was also part of the research, then the text was considered like that, since it is a real communicative situation. Besides it should be a meaning system which can be accessed again any time. It would include many kinds of texts – oral or written – as long as they were recorded somehow. The best text form was investigated as well, in other words, the best speech genre for teaching literacy, once there are important elements which should be considered during the literacy acquisition, such as the encouragement to read and to think about the correct writing of the words. In the end, considerations were made concerning the literacy teacher‘s awareness about the context change when the text is used in a scholar context and about the skills acquired by the students which should be transported to other texts in varied contexts

Also, this paper provides brief commentaries on topics related to translation, particularly those concerned with the difficulties posed by translation of this project

Marcadores discursivos: uma proposta lexicográfica

Spanish is a language that in recent years has been growing in importance both politically and socially and economically, since some of the major international markets such as Chile, Spain, Mexico and Argentina, among many, have this language as the official language. This fact motivated us to conduct research that could, in some way, contribute to the teaching of this language in Brazil. Thus under the aegis of the theories and practices of bilingual lexicography, we seek to describe and analyze the treatment that some Spanish - Portuguese bilingual dictionaries present in our market give to the sentence connectors. From a textual corpus selected the markers and observe how the dictionaries analyzed work with this type of unit. We found that the information contained in these lexicographical works is not sufficient to meet the needs of Brazilian learners. Then, we proposed a macrostructure of a passive bilingual dictionary of sentence connectors in the language pair Spanish - Portuguese. Our research aims to contribute to bilingual lexicography both in regard to theoretical and methodological reflections on the application of these theories. Our contribution aims to fabricate materials for the teaching of Spanish in Brazil

Estereótipos linguísticos: questões tradutórias derivadas do tratamento de fraseologismos em dicioinários bilíngues

Reconhecer as unidades fraseológicas de um texto ao traduzi-lo representa para o tradutor uma das grandes dificuldades impostas à sua tarefa de interpretação. Para além do simples reconhecimento, a identificação de um equivalente apropriado na língua de chegada, considerando seu registro de uso e a carga metafórica que encerra, dentre outros aspectos presentes em tais unidades, impõem ao tradutor um árduo trabalho de pesquisa e análise linguística. Analisamos aqui, além da organização da mega, macro e microestrutura, a tradução para o português de unidades fraseológicas em três dicionários bilíngues na direção espanhol/português, a saber: Señas – Diccionario para la enseñanza de la lengua española para brasileños (Universidad Alcalá de Henares), Diccionario Bilíngüe de Uso Español-Portugués/Português-Espanhol e o Gran Diccionario Español/Portugués/ Português/Espanhol. A análise é feita a partir de um levantamento abrangendo as unidades agrupadas pelo campo semântico 'nome de animal', especificamente as organizadas na entrada 'gato'. Embora a expressão de idéias afins seja comum a diferentes línguas e culturas, o maior ou menor grau de idiomatismo de algumas expressões pode ocasionar ao tradutor diferentes níveis de dificuldade ao tentar estabelecer equivalentes para os dois idiomas.

Hip Hop na aula de FLE: aprendendo e ensinando o léxico não-padrão

Appuyé sur le concept de lexiculture, proposé par R. Galisson (2000), et en reconnaissance de l’existence et de la dimension du mouvement Hip Hop en France, le but de cet article est d’examiner l’importance de cette culture et de son lexique dans le contexte français, soulignant aussi la nécessité de son insertion dans les matériels éducatifs destinés à l’enseignement du français langue étrangère (FLE). À cet effet, nous avons elaboré, à l’aide d’un système de traitement de corpus, une liste bilingue français-portugais brésilien de ce lexique, à partir des paroles des trois principaux artistes français. Il faut noter que la plupart de ces unités lexicales ne sont pas présentes dans les dictionnaires généraux bilingues, ce qui crée des difficultés aux apprenants ainsi qu’aux enseignants d’accès à ce lexique, qui coexiste avec la langue standard étudiée et qui représente une grande richesse linguistique.

A elaboração de um glossário bilíngue da área de comércio tendo como subsídio a Linguística de Corpus

This article aims at presenting part of the results of a terminological study concerning the sworn translation of enforceable instruments into Portuguese. Our study corpora are comprised of translated documents and texts originally written in English and in Portuguese (bill of lading, invoice and promissory note). The software WordSmith Tools generated the wordlists and we selected the term candidates from these lists. The proposed glossaries presents, apart from simple terms, fixed or semi fixed expressions, the cotext (text around the search word) extracted from the studied corpora. It was observed that most part of the fixed or semi fixed expressions are not shown by the specialty dictionaries.

Análise de Expressões Idiomáticas Italianas com as lexias 'capo' e 'testa' e seu correspondente 'cabeça', em língua portuguesa. (QUALIS A2)

This study aims to investigate the Idioms (IEs) or combinations related to the Italian lexical units testa and capo, in comparison to the Portuguese lexical unit cabeça. Since they have come from two completely different etyma, they are not perfect synonyms; on the contrary, they gave rise to several expressions that are common to just one lexical units. Corpus selection was made in monolingual Italian general dictionaries and then the data was classified according to each typology: idioms that are common only with the unit capo; idioms just with head; idioms that are synonyms with both; IEs whose translations refer to other parts of the body. As a result, we found that most of the IEs with capo or testa have common semes, but most of them also are specific to one or other lexical unit exclusively, confirming the difference in semantic features between them as well as non-univocity between languages.

O ensino de expressões idiomáticas à luz da lexicografia pedagógica

In the current context of lexicographical studies, there have been increasing discussions concerning the issue of the relationship between theoretical knowledge of the lexicon and pedagogical practices involved in its teaching. However, in this context, the special lexicon of Portuguese such as neologisms, foreign words, slang and idioms has received little attention from researchers. There are many theoretical studies on each one of these phenomena, but few studies aim at an organization and inclusion of special units in the teaching of Portuguese. For this reason, this article presents a reflection on the teaching of idioms, and, despite the widely held belief that dictionaries are only needed for the teaching of foreign languages, the article suggests the implementation of special dictionaries for the teaching of Portuguese Language in elementary education.

Una lapide in via Mazzini: os sofrimentos em Auschwitz e os desafios da tradução

Giorgio Bassani in his book Una lapide in via Mazzin seeks to show to the readers all the sufferings passed by Italians during the Second World War and emphasized those persists until today. Aiming to make an unprecedented translation of this tale, it is expected that the text provides us great experiences in the language and we could see the actual difficulties and differences with the Portuguese language, despite being considered these languages closed ones. The objective of this work is to produce a translation that allows us to transmit all anxieties and reflections suffered by the main character of the tale. After the war, the survivor of the concentration camp can go back to your city. He appears exactly at the moment is being placed a headstone on the synagogue wall in homage to Jews deported and killed in the camps. Given the gaunt figure of the man with his striped pajamas, the population is driven to rethink their own indifference and , in a way, its share of blame. Thus, the return should be celebrated is rejected and the figure of the survivor becomes a nuisance. The function of the headstone is actually and literally put a stone on the story. To achieve the proposed objective for this work, we analyzed all the chapters of the story Una lapide in via Mazzini and tried to find equivalents in Portuguese. However, we not ignored the traces of meaning that Giorgio Bassani invested in his work. Therefore, it was necessary to use both printed and virtual dictionaries. With the advancement of the translation work, we realized the difficulty of finding appropriate solutions to achieve the desired effect . The fidelity proposed by the author became increasingly difficult as our work progressed. In the course of all the discussions, it was concluded that , in fact , when it comes to translation, maintaining fidelity to the original text in a foreign language is a difficult and laborious process

A análise funcionalista e o estabelecimento de quadros categoriais na gramática

Committed to a functionalist view of grammar, this study takes word classes as its object of analysis, aiming to show that categorical rigidity cannot be upheld in linguistic use. The analysis sample presented starts from the solutions of dictionaries in the registration of word classes parts and from the fluidity that these classes show in their use. Aspects of grammaticalization in Portuguese language are taken as evidence. It is argued that the grammatical organization of language has properties that support categorical shift processes, however singular they may seem to examination.
