Starting from the premise that all fields of human activity are connected by language, that the use of language takes place in the form of statements in a process of discursive interlocution, this work analyzed the language and its process of constitution, not only as an act of communication between an sender and a receiver, but as an action marked by a dialogic structure. Thus, the objective of this study was to understand the constitution of the child's language as a process of verbal and intrapsychic interaction, through observations of situations of dialogues between adults and children from a socio-historical perspective. In order to proceed to this issue, we adopted a qualitative research approach, based on the collection of data in the field work with twelve children aged between 3 and 4 years and two female teachers of the Pre-school class of a private, Early Childhood Education School in the city of Lavras, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The research was based on Bakhtin's Theory of Enunciation and Vygotsky's Historical-Cultural Approach to understand the process of child language development. The study points out children as conscious and active subjectz of their culture, established especially on concrete social relations with the more experienced Other.
