Acesso em:.https://bdm.ufpa.br/jspui/handle/prefix/6641This study has as main objective to investigate the prosodic phenomenon related to the fluency in the discursive planning of bilingual speakers. Specifically, to analyze the time and duration of the silent pause in the oral discourse of japanese descendants (sanseis) living in the municipality of Tomé-Açu, Pará; to compare time and number of pauses in the oral discourse of young Japanese/Portuguese bilinguals and natives of the Portuguese language. It is assumed that young Japanese/Portuguese bilinguals would take longer and present more pauses than native Portuguese speakers. Hume (2008 apud SOARES, 2014) says that the more frequent the access to information acquired from L2, the shorter the pause time for the discursive planning, which would lead to fluent speaking. The material analyzed was composed of spontaneous interviews of the participants that narrated events lived by them. Thus, four students from elementary and middle school, two Japanese/Portuguese bilinguals and two native Portuguese speakers participated in this study. The data showed that the Japanese/Portuguese bilingual participants presented more short, long and extensive pauses than the natives of the Portuguese Language.Acesso AbertoProsódiaPausaSegunda línguaBilíngueProsodyPauseSecond languageBilingualCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LETRAS::LINGUA PORTUGUESATrabalho de Curso - Graduação - Monografia
