Abordagens da variação histórica da língua portuguesa no livro didático do Ensino Fundamental II.

Abstract

Knowledge about the History of the Portuguese Language is essential in terms of teaching and learning the concept of historical variation presented in a language. This work aims to analyze how the textbook of the 6th year of Elementary School II addresses the historical variation of the Portuguese language. From this, evidence the historical process of formation of the Portuguese Language and propose didactic approaches on the History of the Portuguese Language applicable in Elementary School II. For this, we use a bibliographic methodology. The research was carried out from the studies of Coutinho (2011), Assis (2011) and Bagno (2007). From the analysis of the Didactic Book, we noticed an enrichment of knowledge arising from studies of the origin of the Latin language, including the arrival of the Romans in the Iberian Peninsula. These studies promote a discussion about the linguistic variations that have appeared over time in that language, modifying it. Given this, it is observed that it is necessary to search for other sources for teaching-learning, since the approach presented by the Didactic Book is limited.
