Abstract
This article is devoted to the position of the relationship between African languages and the Portuguese language of Brazil. In the year 1930, two types of analyses were proposed: for the first one, African languages influenced Brazilian language; for the second, the Brazilian language was creolized by its contact with African languages. Now, research in this field is being reorganized: linguistic structures and social organization are being studied together, from the sociolinguistic and ideological points of view. We study here the languages spoken in Brazil by African slaves, African multilinguism, the specific status of certains languages and the complex relationship between Portugal, Brazil, and specific African countries such as Angola and Nigeria.
