KATO, Mary A.. VARIATION IN THE BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE CLITIC DOMAIN. Lingüística [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.1, pp.135-145. ISSN 2079-312X.  https://doi.org/10.5935/2079-312x.20170009.

The aim of the present article is to describe the grammatical variation found in the child before schooling, and in the literate adult, in a domain where a substantive diachronic change occurred in Brazilian Portuguese, namely in its clitic system. Our hypothesis is that, before schooling, the child will exhibit forms determined only by learning through selection, while after the beginning of schooling children will start to exhibit the forms learned both by selection and by instruction, resulting, at first sight, in a process of code-switching. The analysis shows, however, that the variation found in the adult can occur on a more complex level in the sense of Kroch’s (1994) grammar competition.

Palavras-chave : clitics; language variation; grammar competition; schooling.
