RESUMO:

The variation of the use of the article in front of anthroponyms is a phenomenon that stills little investigated in Brazilian Portuguese, especially on the basis of dialectal corpus. This lack of investigations results in a lot of questions about the variables that condition its use / nonuse on Brazilian Portuguese. The choice of its use versus non-use of the article by the informant seems to be conditioned by linguistic and extralinguistic factors, such as syntactic function, relationship among the interlocutors, locality, number of syllables, gender of the name and gender of the informant. Grammars also usually restrict the use of the definite article as a particle that precedes a noun in order to specify it among others of the same species. However, studies of semantic basis reveal that, in addition to a referential function, the definite article also has a pragmatic function within the discourse. Based on some studies about the phenomena in question, this research aims to present results about the variation of the article in relation to proper names in the speech of 88 informants from Bahia, based on the corpus of the Linguistic Atlas of Brazil Project, in order to contribute to a better description of the Portuguese language spoken in the national territory and to integrate the work of the ALiB Project. For this, in addition to considering the linguistic and extralinguistic variables already mentioned, the aspects related to the nature of the speech, such as the proximity between those involved in the discourse, and the familiarity relation between the informant and the person referred to were kept under control. The methodology used in the research follows the ALiB Project, with 4 informants per inland location, divided into two age groups - from 18 to 30 years old, and from 50 to 65 years old - and according to gender, man or woman. For the capital, Salvador, only the informants with incomplete fundamental schooling were considered, aiming at the counterpoint with the data of the other localities. For the development of the research, a full hearing of all the surveys was carried out, with special attention to questions 1 and 2 of the Morphosyntactic Questionnaire, specific to the phenomenon in question, in addition to the whole discourse of the informant's book during the interview. The results were interpreted considering the assumptions of Pluridimensional Geolinguistics (CARDOSO, 2015) and Quantitative Sociolinguistics (LABOV, 2015 [2008]). The results founded in this study show that only 15% of the interviewed speakers used the article defined in the context studied, which leads us to affirm that this is, in fact, a regional phenomenon, but that it is influenced by other internal factors and foreign language.
