CONTROL OF MOBILITY IN LINGUISTIC VARIABLES

Authors

Abstract

Mobility has an important role on the mechanism of linguistic change in Brazilian Portuguese (BORTONI-RICARDO, 1985, 2011; OUSHIRO, 2016). Due to mobility, speakers come onto contact with linguistic variables that are not from their origin community, leading them to incorporate these variables in their repertoire and to disseminate them in other communities. In this paper, we aim to discuss studies related to mobility and language to understand how, from displacement and contact with different norms, speakers can change their linguistic behavior. We focus on studies based on the sample Deslocamentos (2019), from the Falares Sergipanos database (FREITAG, 2013), which considers the speech of university students at the Federal University of Sergipe regarding their region of origin and their insertion in the academic community in terms of time, such as Corrêa (2019), Ribeiro (2019) and Siqueira (2020). The results show that speakers of the sample present different patterns depending of their origin community.
