Abstract
In sociolinguistic interviews, paulistanos (people born and raised in the city of São Paulo) comment on two “degrees of retroflexion” of post-vocalic (-r): a “strong” and a “weak” pronunciation, which respectively correspond to the retro-flex and the alveolar approximant. The former is generally believed to be em-ployed by people who live in the state’s countryside, while the latter is conside-red to be present in Paulistano speech. These two variants are in opposition to the tap, the prototypical Paulistano variant. This paper discusses results of a sociophonetic experiment that measures how differently these acoustic subtle-ties are perceived by different groups of Paulistanos. The main goal is to verify if the speakers’ social categories have an influence on whether the variants are perceived as more different or more similar.
