In this article we gathered a compilation of works advised by professor Edair Maria Görski, notably those that deal with the description of discourse markers derived from different grammatical categories, such as verbal forms (sabe? and entendeu?, olha, veja, vê and quer dizer), phrasal reductions (tá?), adjectives (certo? and bom) and adverbs (bem). Data analysis was based on the theoretical perspective of Variationist Sociolinguistics and North American Functional Linguistics. Despite certain methodological differences, we centered our analysis on the results of studies that investigated the multifunctionality and variation of DMs from four synchronic samples of speech in Brazilian Portuguese South taken from VARSUL Interinstitutional Project Database (Urban Linguistic Variation in the South of Brazil) in the city of Florianópolis,. In general, the four samples from VARSUL/Florianópolis collected 2689 exemplars of discourse markers, iincluding the verbal ones, which are until now the most investigated in the research. The results of the investigated synchronic samples showed variation and tendency to use the forms.
