Abstract:
The portuguese language is the result of several processes of transformation, including
phonetics. These changes are involuntary and sometimes go unnoticed in the speech and
favoring the existing linguistic diversity. In this context, we interest us in developing this
research, which aimed to analyze the use / listening to the presence or absence of words
phoneme / l / or / r / (for example, "flamengo / framengo.": standard / non-standard) in
Campina Grande. To guide the investigation, the specific objectives were established: a)
identify the use/listening words with /l/ and /r/ (standard and nonstandard) to people that lives
in the city, and b) relate to the use/listening to /l/ and /r/ (standard and non-standard) in the
variables gender, age and educational level of the informants. This is a research about
linguistic variation defined like qualitative and quantitative.To achieve the proposed
objectives, we apply a questionnaire to quantify the use and listening about the variations of
the words, as the presence and absence of the phoneme /l/ and /r/.The theoretical foundations
used recover studies on phonetic variation (LABOV, 1966), variation and change (LEITE e
CALLOU, 2002; FARACO, 2005; ILARI e BASSO, 2007), metaplasm (COUTINHO, 1974;
BAGNO, 2011) and education (MENEGUELLI e SOUZA, 2014).The results of the analysis
revealed that between gender, age and education there are significant differences between the
proximity or standard distance and make us to reflect on the role of school about the
variations and change language.
