Resumo: In this paper, I propose a formal description and analysis of verb and noun agreement in brazilian portuguese (BP). The formal account allows us to analyze, in the same computational grammar, agreement patterns from standard and popular varieties of BP. For that, the main types of agreement were identified and described based on agreement theories (STELLE, 1978; CORBETT, 2003; 2006). The formal account was based on Lexical-Functional Grammar (DALRYMPLE, HRISTOV, 2010; DALRYMPLE; WECHSLER; ZLATI?, 2000; 2003). In this work, it was assumed that BP uses two levels of lexicogrammatical features for number agreement: morphosyntactic features (CONCORD) and semantic features (INDEX), which license alternative and varied agreement patterns. The formalization was implemented computationally through the XLE system, and tests were carried out with exemplary sentences for the modelled patterns. As a result, the grammar assigned to the sentences the expected analysis, licensing the acceptable patterns and blocking the unacceptable ones.

La formalización permite, en una misma gramática computacional, el análisis de patrones de concordancia de las variedades populares y cultas del PB. Para esto, los principales tipos de concordancia han sido identificados y descritos con base en teorías de concordancia (STELLE, 1978; CORBETT, 2003; 2006). El tratamiento formal se ha basado en la Gramática Léxico-Funcional (DALRYMPLE, HRISTOV, 2010; DALRYMPLE; WECHSLER; ZLATI?, 2000; 2003). En esta descripción, se asumió que el PB emplea dos niveles de rasgos léxico-gramaticales para la concordancia de número: rasgos morfosintácticos (CONCORD) y rasgos semánticos (INDEX), responsables por licenciar patrones variados y alternativos de concordancia. La formalización se ha implementado computacionalmente a través del sistema XLE, y se realizaron pruebas utilizando sentencias ejemplares de los patrones modelados. Como resultado, la gramática atribuyó a las sentencias los análisis esperados, licenciando los patrones aceptables y bloqueando los patrones inaceptables.Neste artigo, proponho uma análise e descrição formal da concordância nominal e verbal de número no português brasileiro (PB). A formalização permite em uma mesma gramática computacional a análise de padrões de concordância das variedades populares e cultas do PB. Para isso, os principais tipos de concordância foram identificados e descritos com base em teorias de concordância (STELLE, 1978; CORBETT, 2003; 2006). O tratamento formal baseou-se na Gramática Léxico-Funcional (DALRYMPLE, HRISTOV, 2010; DALRYMPLE; WECHSLER; ZLATI?, 2000; 2003). Nessa descrição, assumiu-se que o PB emprega dois níveis de traços léxico-gramaticais para a concordância de número: traços morfossintáticos (CONCORD) e traços semânticos (INDEX), responsáveis por licenciar padrões variados e alternativos de concordância. A formalização foi implementada computacionalmente por meio do sistema XLE, e testes foram realizados utilizando sentenças exemplares dos padrões modelados. Como resultado, a gramática atribuiu às sentenças as análises esperadas, licenciando os padrões aceitáveis e bloqueando os padrões inaceitáveis.Programa de Pós-Graduação em Linguística - UFSC2023-10-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionavaliado por paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/article/view/7614610.5007/1984-8412.2023.e76146Fórum Linguístico; Vol. 20 No. 3 (2023); 9231-9253Fórum Linguístico; Vol. 20 Núm. 3 (2023); 9231-9253Fórum Linguístico; v. 20 n. 3 (2023); 9231-92531984-84121415-8698reponame:Fórum Linguísticoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporenghttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/article/view/76146/54453https://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/article/view/76146/54454Copyright (c) 2023 Fórum Linguísticohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMourão, Jessé2023-10-21T19:13:54Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/76146Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/forum/oaiportaldeperiodicos.bu@contato.ufsc.br || atilio.butturi@ufsc.br1984-84121984-8412opendoar:2023-10-21T19:13:54Fórum Linguístico - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
