Our work is part of the area of concentration of Processes of Variation and Change Studies, in the research line "Study of Processes of Variation and Change and Description, Analysis and Documentation of Indigenous Languages", of the Postgraduate Program in Linguistics of the Mato Grosso State University (UNEMAT). In this work we propose to analyze the sociolinguistic uses of five Portuguese language teachers, born in Cáceres - Mato Grosso, working in five basic education institutions, contemplating the grades of elementary school II. The analysis of the study was supported by the Variationist theory of qualitative-quantitative character, postulated by William Labov (1969, 1972) in the 1960s. In this sense, the research is also based on José Lemos Monteiro (2000); Ana Maria Zilles, and Carlos Alberto Faraco (2017). These authors discuss norms by approaching the variable events in a pedagogical way to the field research, to understand which differential makes the extralinguistic play an autonomous role in the speech of the Portuguese language teacher born in Cáceres, considering the search for the variables arising in the classroom, in this case, the vernacular of the teacher in contrast to normative grammar. Diversity is present when we think of the language of a speaker (in this case the person born in Cáceres), and of his profession (the Portuguese language teacher). In direct analysis, we noticed that the teachers who collaborated in this research use the Cacerense language in the classroom, leading us to understand the recurrence of phonetic and phonological variations found in the transcriptions of the recordings.
