Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: The present study investigates the language attitudes related to the pronunciation of caipira /R/, and taking into account the Accommodation Theory by Giles, Taylor & Bourhis (1973) and Giles & Powesland (1975), discusses the linguistic variants found in the data as those variants referred by the informants. The corpus comprises data collected from four native inhabitants of Campinas, a city in the countryside of Sao Paulo state, Brazil. These data were recorded, submitted to acoustic analysis and examined in conformity with the Accommodation Theory. The analysis indicates that as a consequence of an accommodation process, the informants produced a /R/variant distinct from the typical one of their own dialect.
