RESUMO

The present work aimed to identify and analyze - in regard to local linguistic variety - the sociolinguistic attitudes of the natives from Cáceres, MT, as well as of the inhabitants - migrants - who have been living here in the region for the past eight years The great flow of immigrants to the Center-West region of Brazil, for the last three decades provoked impacts and ruptures into the physical,biological, political and cultural structures of the referred region. Amongst these phenomena, we suspect that a stressed stigmatization of the native language of Cáceres is precipitating its disappearance. For the investigation of this hypothesis, we interviewed - person by person - 12 natives and 12 immigrants. The interviewed people were professionals of the langu age , such as: teachers, lawyers, joumalists and broadcasters), as well as nonprofessionals of the language. The interviews, (face-to-face) were recorded and transcribed consisting, therefore, in the corpus of this research. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the stigma and show stereotypes of the local linguistic variety. The preconception is bilateral: both of them - immigrants and natives - do not give prestige to linguistic forms of the cacerense speech. The distinctive aspect is foúnd in the motivation of the preconception - for the immigrants it seems to represent a form of domination on the natives; and for these, a mechanism of defense against the social and economic.
