Vozes da periferia: uma análise fonético-fonológica de enunciados produzidos por interlocutores não-nativos no material complementar de áudio do New English File Pre- Intermediate e suas implicações para o ensino de inglês como língua estrangeira

Abstract

In this paper, we identify and quantify the presence of non-native speakers in the tracks of the New English File Pre-Intermediate audio CDs, which are used in the open courses offered by Universidade Federal da Paraíba. After a brief sum-up of the contemporary discussions on the role played by non-native varieties of English in the teaching of English as a foreign language, the interlocutors in the audio CDs are classified as native or non-native according to a phonetic-phonological analysis of their speeches, based on Kachru's categorization of the different varieties of the English language in the world (in inner circle, outer circle and expanding circle).
