Abstract

This article aims at analyzing the lexical maps of three linguistic atlases from Paraná: two related to the city of Londrina (AGUILERA, 1987 and ROMANO, 2012) and one related to the State of Paraná, the Linguistic Atlas of Paraná (AGUILERA, 1994), concerning the variants for espadrilles. As these are popular shoes that are falling out of use in Paraná, with this work our objective is to verify and discuss: (i) by means of real time and apparent time research (LABOV, 1996 [1972]), in two synchronies, the changes and resistances of the lexical units in the speech of people from Londrina; (ii) the lexical collection found in the three atlases and its dicionarization; (iii) how the creation of popular forms to name such popular shoes at the beginning of the colonization in the north of Paraná happens
