Opis

In this study, the author presents a preliminary analysis of two bilingual dictionaries of Brazilian indigenous languages: Ka'apor and Yuhupdeh, based on the semantic field of cosmology, that is, focusing on lexemes that express indigenous knowledge about the sky, natural phenomena, and associated sociological elements, which represents modest contributions in the fields of lexicography, cosmology, and ethnography.
