Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper presents an action-research study conducted in basic education, focusing on teaching vocatives from an enunciative-discursive perspective (Nascimento, 2000; Guimarães, 2002; Santos, 2004; Moreira, 2013), considering language in use. The proposal aimed to explore the vocative as an essential element for communicative interaction, emphasizing its role in enunciative relations and its semiotic scope. For linguistic/semiotic analysis practice, the interview podcast genre was selected as the basis for didactic action, given the frequency and relevance of the vocative in this multimodal genre. To observe the development of students' knowledge, a diagnostic production and a final production of the genre were conducted. During the didactic action, various genres in which the vocative is commonly present were addressed with the students. The results indicated that students broadened their perception of the vocative, moving from a restricted, normative view to a more comprehensive and functional understanding. By connecting theory and practice, the study highlighted the transformative potential of the communicative approach to grammar teaching, promoting contextualized and reflective learning. KEYWORDS: Vocative; Linguistic analysis; Basic education.
