Apagamento por apócope do rótico /R/ em verbos no infinitivo na escrita de alunos do 6ºano do ensino fundamental: uma proposta de intervenção fono-ortográfica

Abstract

When considering the relationships between orality and writing, teaching practice in Portuguese can make it possible to face spelling difficulties presented by students. In this sense, the present research aims to analyze the possible influences of the phonological process by apócope, which consists of the deletion of phonemes at the end of a word, such as the drop of /r/ in Tomar > “tomá”, to minimize the difficulties of writing in a 6th year class at a public school in the state education network located in the municipality of Tacima/PB. This investigation will be based on a study in three stages: Pre-training (diagnosis and formation of the corpus), Training (phono-orthographic intervention activities) and Post-training (verification of possible attenuation of the phenomenon investigated). We used as a theoretical contribution the studies by Marcuschi (2001), Antunes (2003) and Soares (2020) which point to the uses of the language in its written and oral modalities in a correlated way; Mollica (2003), Callou and Leite (2009) and Roberto (2016) deal with notions in phonology to understand the phenomenon of apocope; regarding sociolinguistic notes in the speech-writing relationship, we consider the studies by Bortoni-Ricardo (2004) and Bagno (2017); Kishimoto (1996) and Zorzi (2017), by proposing pedagogical activities that promote the phoneme-letter relationship. For the methodology of this research, we used quantitative approaches, since the phonological phenomenon was quantified in the texts and qualitative, because we sought to analyze its motivation, as well as an interventionist nature through the application of phono-orthographic activities in order to alleviate the spelling deviation checked. The results obtained reveal that the main motivation for apocope has an influence on orality and carrying out the intervention contributed to its attenuation.
