Abstract

This article brings an excerpt of the dissertation entitled a study of the semantic-lexical variation of the Portuguese spoken in the municipalities of Benjamin Constant and Tabatinga in the triple region Brazil/Colombia/Peru, in the state of Amazonas, which had as general objective to investigate the semantic-lexical variation (food and social relations) of the Portuguese spoken in the two localities, in the light of the Multidimensional Dialectology. For the development of this research, 24 residents of the two municipalities (12 in each) were selected, stratified according to sex, age group and schooling. As for data collection, it was performed through the application of the Semantic-Lexical Questionnaire (Food and Social Relations) and through the recording of free conversation. For the analysis and presentation of the data, linguistic charts were elaborated, with the help of the Software for Generation and Visualization of Linguistic Letters – SGVCLin (SEABRA, ROMANO, OLIVEIRA, 2014). In general, with this master's research, it was possible to perceive that there are lexical forms specific to these two localities; note that some variants are conditioned by groups of extralinguistic factors; It was also possible to know the foreignisms present in the speech of the residents of the region investigated. In this section, the purpose is to present 3 letters in which it was possible to ascertain the occurrence of lexical interferences in the Portuguese spoken in both localities, resulting from contact with the Spanish language.
