| Summary: | The political emancipation of the state of Tocantins, Brazil, occurred 28 years ago, The state is characterized by linguistic varieties due to the intense migratory flow of people hailing mainly from neighboring states of Maranhão, Piauí, Bahia and Pará. Porto Nacional, Pedro Afonso and Natividade, founded on the former northern region of the state of Goiás, are the towns with the highest number of immigrants. In fact, they are relevant historical places formed by autochthonous people and immigrants. Since the above-mentioned towns present important variation aspects of the spoken Portuguese language in Tocantins, current study identifies and analyzes rhotic pronunciation, graphematically represented by /R/ as a syllabic coda, in the three mentioned towns. Survey was undertaken with 24 topodynamic and topostatic informants distributed by gender and age. A segment of the questionnaire with 25 questions collected from the project “Topodynamic and Topostatic Linguistic Atlas of the State of Tocantins (ALiTTETO)”is investigated. |
