Abstract
Officially spoken by more than 20 countries, the Spanish language has great linguistic diversity, fact challenging to those who want to teach it or learn it, perhaps translate it to another language. Similarly, Brazilian Portuguese has different linguistic varieties, which is noticeable by observing, for example, the different dialects Northeastern or Southern. This linguistic diversity is reflected in the forms of treatment for 2nd person in both languages. In this way, to have to translate the treatment forms of the Spanish language (tú, vos, usted, vosotros and ustedes) for Portuguese or Portuguese pronouns (tu, você, senhor, vós and vocês) into Spanish, it will be up to the translator consider extralinguistic aspects, to decide the pronoun proper treatment to the public and its translation goals. In this context, this article aims to conduct a dialogue between Translation Studies, Spanish Language Teaching and Sociolinguistics variationist, aiming to highlight the potential to approach these areas for the preparation of didactic proposals on linguistic variation in the treatment forms of Spanish and Portuguese.
