Barmy, crazy, mad: how difficulty was to answer the ALIB questionnaire regarding the lexicon for crazy and the inquirer's role
Abstract
Brazilian Geolinguistics has reached many advances in the last decades. Among the achievements of this area is the Project ALiB - Linguistic Atlas of Brazil (CARDOSO et al, 2014), a work that describes the linguistic reality of the country. Based on this great work, the present study intends to analyze interviews of the ALiB Project, regarding the Southeast Region of the country (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Vitória and Belo Horizonte), regarding the difficulties faced by the inquirer when applying the phonetic-phonological questionnaire (QFF). In order to do so, we selected 32 interviews, referring to question number 138, which seeks to investigate the phonetic variations for lexicon for "crazy". Because it is an issue that presents difficulties in obtaining the answer, it is sought through the analysis of the corpus, to observe the role of the inquirer in the collection of complete and adequate data for the desired ends.Keywords
