Talk:Manezês

Dois
I think it's almost impossible that someone in Florianópolis would pronounce "dois" as [dɔf]. It doesn't even make sense. As a matter of fact, the pronunciation of "dois" as [doʃ] with a very strong [ʃ] is a recurrent source of mockery from outsiders who live in Floripa and find the accent amusing. I would go as far as to say that perhaps the "d" is pronounced as [d], instead of the normal Portuguese dental [d̪], because it does sound very different from Standard Brazilian Portuguese.

"dialectical" words
Which, I suppose, means "dialectal words".

Most of the examples given are quite common in Brazil at large, or in the whole Southern region, or elsewhere Azorean influence is important. Ninguém (talk) 01:08, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I took a look at, which is the source for the vocabulary in this article. Unhappily, a lot of the words and expressions listed there as characteristic of "Manezês" are Standard Portuguese.


 * For instance:


 * À toda
 * Abobado
 * Abusar
 * Aguaceiro
 * Alguidar
 * Apartado
 * Arremedar
 * Asseado
 * Avoado


 * Others are colloquial Portuguese that can be heard wherever in Brazil:


 * A três por dois
 * Abaixar a crista
 * Acachapado
 * Água de barrela
 * Aluado
 * Antonte
 * Ariado
 * Às brinca
 * Avacalhar


 * So it shouldn't be taken very seriously. Ninguém (talk) 01:08, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
