Abstract

This paper aims to show the lexical variation of the item riacho/córrego in the inland cities of the northern region of Brazil, in addition to comparing these results with the data found by Razky and Sanches (2016). For this, the database of the Linguistic Atlas of Brazil Project (ALiB) was consulted. The lexical item analyzed corresponds to the first question of the Semantic-Lexical Questionnaire (QSL). The questionnaire was applied in 18 cities in the northern region and answered by four informants from each locality. The results indicate that the igarapé variant characterizes the northern Brazilian speaking in capitals and inland cities.
