Resumo

Ao levar em consideração as línguas indígenas e a própria Linguística, este número da Revista Linguística coloca à disposição dos leitores diálogos internos à Linguística e aqueles que, dando-se entre a Linguística e outras ciências, podem beneficiar não somente análises em curso sob a perspectiva formal, mas também dar margem a reinterpretações ou tratamentos angulados formalmente. Apresentamos a seguir os movimentos internos a cada artigo constante deste número e a sua contribuição.
