Through a corpus-based and qualitative-interpretative analysis, we identified different conceptual information present in English but absent in Italian and Portuguese, driven by communicative contexts. The research proposes a cognitive architecture of knowledge among Portuguese and Italian speakers, illustrating how cognition and experience facilitate the association of specific semantic constructions, thereby favouring certain interpretations in the target languages over others.

Joaquim Mattoso Camara Jr, then a Portuguese teacher, vehemently opposed the law in the article “Brazilian Language of the Federal District”, published in the Diário de Notícias of Rio de Janeiro. He sent the article to one of the councilors who, like him, was against the law. The councilor read the article from the gallery of the city parliament and was the only one to vote against the passing of the law. Here we present an edition of the text by Camara Jr. based on the transcription of the minutes of the city council meeting published in the Jornal do Brasil, as access to the article is becoming increasingly difficult. The edition is preceded by a small study, because without the bill and without knowledge of the political context in which it was inserted, Camara Jr.’s analysis would lose some of its comprehension in its entirety.

Both works sought to normalize the use of ethnonyms in scientific Portuguese texts, namely: "Convention for the spelling of tribal names" and "The spelling of Brazilian tribal names".
