Resumo: In this article, we discuss the late acquisition of passive sentences, focusing on studies in Brazilian Portuguese. Late acquisition of passive constructions is widely discussed in the literature, specially under the ‘Maratsos effect’: late acquisition of verbal passives with non-action verbs (e.g. hear, see, like, etc.). Two hypotheses are defended in the literature to explain this phenomenon: the hypothesis of maturation of language skills (BORER; WEXLER, 1987) and the hypothesis of the influence of language input (DEMUTH, 1989; DEMUTH et al., 2010). In this paper, we give an overview of both theoretical explanations about the delay in the acquisition of passives and discuss them on the basis of studies of acquisition in Brazilian Portuguese. We analyze the studies of Brazilian Portuguese concerning theoretical and experimental linguistic data, and conclude that they seem to bring evidence to believe that the maturational hypothesis provides a more sensible explanation for the acquisition of Brazilian Portuguese passives.

La adquisición tardía de las construcciones pasivas ya es bien conocida en la literatura, que se denomina “efecto Maratsos”: el retraso en la adquisición de los verbos pasivos verbales sin acción (“escuchar”, “ver”, etc.). Dos hipótesis explican este fenómeno en la literatura: la hipótesis de la maduración de las habilidades lingüísticas (BARRENADOR; WEXLER, 1987) y la hipótesis de la influencia del idioma de entrada (DEMUTH, 1989; DEMUTH et al. 2010). En este trabajo, se ofrece una visión general de las dos explicaciones teóricas sobre el retraso en la adquisición del pasivo y las discutimos sobre la base de los estudios de adquisición de las oraciones pasivas en PB. Nos fijamos en algunos estudios clave de la lingüística teórica y experimental y concluimos que hay pruebas para creer que la hipótesis de maduración proporciona una explicación más razonable para los datos en PB.Neste artigo, discutimos a aquisição tardia de sentenças passivas, focando nos estudos sobre passivas do português brasileiro (PB). A aquisição tardia das construções passivas já é bem conhecida na literatura, é o chamado “efeito Maratsos”: o atraso na aquisição de passivas verbais com verbos de não ação (“ouvir”, “ver”, “gostar”, etc.). Duas hipóteses são defendidas na literatura para explicar esse fenômeno: a hipótese da maturação de habilidades linguísticas (BORER & WEXLER, 1987) e a hipótese da influência do input linguístico (DEMUTH, 1989; DEMUTH et al., 2010). Neste artigo, procuramos traçar um panorama de ambas as explicações teóricas sobre o atraso na aquisição das passivas e discuti-las com base nos estudos de aquisição de sentenças passivas em PB. Sob viés linguístico teórico-experimental, analisamos alguns estudos-chave e concluímos que eles parecem trazer evidências para se acreditar que a hipótese maturacional fornece uma explicação mais sensata para os dados do PB.Programa de Pós-Graduação em Linguística - UFSC2018-10-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/article/view/1984-8412.2018v15n3p324110.5007/1984-8412.2018v15n3p3241Fórum Linguístico; Vol. 15 No. 3 (2018); 3241-3258Fórum Linguístico; Vol. 15 Núm. 3 (2018); 3241-3258Fórum Linguístico; v. 15 n. 3 (2018); 3241-32581984-84121415-8698reponame:Fórum Linguísticoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/article/view/1984-8412.2018v15n3p3241/37754Copyright (c) 2018 Fórum Linguísticoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOthero, Gabriel de ÁvilaTeixeira, Mariana Terra2018-10-23T17:35:59Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/45782Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/oaiportaldeperiodicos.bu@contato.ufsc.br || atilio.butturi@ufsc.br1984-84121984-8412opendoar:2023-01-12T16:40:28.915172Fórum Linguístico - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
