Resumo

Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar a compreensão auditiva das formas sandhi (assimilação, ligação e contração) na Interfonologia do Português Brasileiro/Inglês. Cinquenta e dois alunos brasileiros de inglês, com idades entre 15 e 50 anos, e um nível mínimo de proficiência em inglês B1, responderam a duas tarefas de escuta, uma com e outra sem formas sandhi. Posteriormente, preencheram um questionário sobre a frequência com que assistiam filmes em inglês, com e sem legenda, e também sobre a frequência com que ouviam músicas em inglês, prestando atenção nas letras. Os dados coletados foram analisados quantitativa e qualitativamente. Os resultados indicaram que, nos alunos brasileiros de inglês que participaram do estudo, as formas sandhi causaram dificuldades de compreensão auditiva, especialmente quando envolviam palavras de conteúdo e a forma sandhi tinha um par mínimo. Embora os participantes assistissem a filmes e séries em inglês, com legendas tanto em inglês quanto em português, observou-se melhor desempenho entre aqueles que consumiam conteúdos sem legendas.
