I hold a degree in Portuguese-English Language and Literature from the Federal University of Paraná (1982), a master's degree in Linguistics from the State University of Campinas (1988), a doctorate in Linguistics from Katholieke Universiteit Leuven - Belgium (1995), and a ''livre-docência'' degree in Historical Linguistics from the São Paulo State University (Unesp) (2025). Between 2014 and 2015. I completed a post-doctoral internship, as a visiting professor, at the Sociolinguistics Laboratory, at University of Ottawa, Canada. Currently, I am an associate professor at the São Paulo State University (Unesp). My experience in Linguistics lies especially in the fields of Sociolinguistics, Historical Linguistics, and Historical Sociolinguistics My main research topics and interests include Brazilian Portuguese; processes of variation and change related to verbal morphology, morphosyntax (agreement), and syntax (word order, predication, complementation); Correlations between text genre, style, norm(s), identity, and linguistic variation/change.I am leader of SOLAR - Research Group in Sociolinguistics - Unesp - UFSCar (CNPq), together with Caroline Biazolli.

This project aims to investigate the process of linguistic variation and change in the context of locative relativization strategies in prepositioned contexts in Brazilian Portuguese. Furthermore, it seeks to understand whether and how textual genres (plays and journalistic genres) play a role in regulating variable patterns or linguistic change. For this, we will base on a diachronic app…
Based on the Theory of Linguistic Variation and Change, this work will characterize the ways of speaking in two cities known for their rural characteristics, Cabo Verde-MG and Muzambinho-MG, in order to identify which are the regional identity values of these communities, and how they are constructed, expressed, and sustained through language. For this, four sociolinguistic variables will…
This project aims to investigate how the process of relativization is characterized in locative contexts, in Paulista Portuguese. Our main hypothesis is that the constructions headed by onde, que and em que are in a process of variation given the multifunctionality of the first, onde (BRAGA , MANFILI, 2004; LIMA, 2007; RABBIT, 2001; SOUZA, 2003; SILVA, 2008; CROWN, LIMA, 2014; MARINE,…
This project proposes a study on the mapping of the uses of the relative pronoun ONDE in the speech of the interior of São Paulo and of the city of São Paulo. From a theoretical base on relative clauses (MOLLICA, 1977, TARALLO, 1983, 1985, CAMACHO, 2013, 2017, RIBEIRO, 2009) and on the target pronoun itself (BRAGA, MANFILI, 2004; LIMA, 2007; COELHO, 2001; SOUZA, 2003; SILVA, 2008; COROA, …
This project proposes a study on a phenomenon already present in Portuguese for a long time, although not too much studied, especially in 'Paulista' variety: the alternation between the conditional and the indicative imperfect in their simple forms (compraria/comprava) and their periphrastic forms (teria comprador/ia comprar) in hypothetical conditional clauses. It is what is seen in exam…

Relative clauses are a strong candidate for a linguistic universal since relativization is a phenomenon recurrent in several languages, representing the linguistic encoding of a specification or comment on a nominal element of the sentence structure (KEENAN, COMRIE, 1977,1979; KEENAN, 1985). More recently, changes in the functionality of relative markers have also become the object of int…
The subjunctive has traditionally been associated with the notions of (i) possibility, probability, doubt, and assumption, and (ii) obligation, necessity, desire and intention. These values are well-known as part of a grammatical tradition that keeps them conscientiously associated with the subjunctive. It is also well-known, yet little accepted, that there is a trend toward replacing the…
