Abstract

Starting from the intercultural perspective, this analysis aims at analyzing the role of cultures in Portuguese, Chinese culture and the interaction between them in oral classes of PFL (Portuguese as foreign language) from higher education institutions based in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. This study is based on quantitative research, through a questionnaire survey among 219 students. It is concluded that Portuguese language cultures have an unquestionable role in PFL oral classes. However, an imbalance has been observed in the introduction of different cultural variants of the Portuguese language in most oral classes, where Portuguese culture is mainly highlighted and other Portuguese language cultures are ignored. On the other hand, it was found that Chinese culture and interculturality are integrated in these classes, but in a small percentage. At the same time, there is a little space for Chinese culture and intercultural encounters in PFL oral classes.
