Abstract

WILSON, Francelino. Português, língua pluricêntrica: integração de variedades no ensino. RILP [online]. 2021, vol.39, pp.17-31.  Epub Feb 25, 2022. ISSN 2182-4452.  https://doi.org/10.31492/2184-2043.rilp2021.39/pp.17-31.

The Portuguese language is not spoken uniformly in different spaces, times, circumstances, users, etc. It, like any living organism, follows the dynamics of which it is imbued, which gives it categories of variation (cf. Mateus, 2003; Mussalim et al., 2012). However, only European and Brazilian varieties are recognized in education. This situation opens space for two problems:the overvaluation of the European standard in detriment of the others; and the exclusion of non-standard varieties from formal means of education. This, in turn, is attentive to the pluricentricity principles of the Portuguese language. Under this study, it is urgent to propose the introduction of non-standard varieties (e.g., from Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, São Tomé and Príncipe, Guinea-Bissau, Timor-Leste), in terms of lexicon, in formal education, given the proven advantages in teaching Portuguese as foreign language. The proposal is based on philological data and field research.
