In this article, we discuss the anteposition of adjectives in spoken brazilian portuguese (bp) in the city of São Paulo, using data from the Projeto NURC-SP. This essay is based on the typology proposed by Ilari (1990 and 1992) and Castilho (1990) for the categorization of adverbs in spoken brazilian portuguese. The analysis of the anteposition of adjectives was also based on variation theory, taking into account a statistical analysis of the variables anteposition vs. postposition of predicative adjectives. Firstly, we present an overview of word order in brazilian portuguese (Tarallo, 1990). Secondly, we propose a categorization of the predicative adjectives in three types: quantifiers, aspectualizers and modalizers according to Castilho (1992a). Thirdly, we discuss the results of the statistical analysis and the cross-tabulation of the selected factors. Finally we present the factors that favour the anteposition of the predicative adjectives in bp.
