In this study, through the analytical and interpretative support from Sociolinguistics, we systematize and describe the behavior of pretonic oral mid vowels /e, o/ by Portuguese speakers of Marabá in Brazil. Based on the observation of the sociocultural and linguistic diversity of this speech community, the research corpus was collected from 36 native subjects to guarantee that the sample plan obeys socio-stratified criteria relating to gender, schooling and age. We used the computational tool VARB2000 for the statistical survey concerning the frequency of the dependent variables. This tool was also used to calculate the relative heft of the independent variables considered relevant for this study. The results make evident the predominance of the low-mid variants [, ] (48%, 51%). High-mid vowels represent the second biggest quantity [e, o] (34%, 27%), and high vowels the third [i, u] (18%, 22%). The quantification of pretonic oral mid vowels in the speech of Portuguese speakers of Marabá confirms the system of variation in PB.
