摘要:This paper describes the sound system of the Pomeranian language, which is still spoken in some regions of Brazil. This description was based on the phonemics’ method, developed by Pike (1947). In order to do so, four subjects (three bilinguals (Portuguese and Pomeranian) and one monolingual (Pomeranian)) were interviewed and then they were presented to a list of six hundred lexical items, of which we could identify consonant and vowel phones, gather minimal pairs to build the phonemic table of consonants and vowels, observe some phonological processes and, finally, describe the syllabic structure of Pomeranian.
