Description

Every language is alive, dynamic, and constantly changing. This transformation is favored by linguistic innovations produced by speakers in the context of languages in contact. This is the case with Brazilian immigrants living in the US who, in their social interactions and driven by the need to socialize and adapt to the new culture, are speaking a different Portuguese, permeated by neologisms, the result of a mixture of English and Portuguese. What are these linguistic innovations? How could this Portuguese produced in North America be classified? What linguistic and extralinguistic factors are favoring the creation of linguistic innovations? Questions such as these are the subject of this dissertation, which also addresses interesting situations of languages in contact.
