Description
- Abstract:
- Research carried out in the old Portuguese newspaper A Voz da Colónia allowed us to discover a small linguistic treasure long forgotten in the form of an inventory of terms used in the 1920s by Portuguese emigrants in America. We rescue them from oblivion and make them known, in the hope that they will be useful, both for linguists and for those who study our emigrant communities in the United States.

Resgatamo-los do esquecimento e damo-los a conhecer, na esperança de que sejam úteis, quer para linguistas quer para quem se debruça sobre o estudo das nossas comunidades emigrantes nos Estados Unidos.
