According to the data analyzed, we verified that, in relation to the pronominal alternation, the linguistic beliefs and attitudes  of the speakers do not correspond to the linguistic behavior of the community, suggesting that such alternation is a linguistic phenomena of the marker type, and, as far as to verbal agreement, we find that the linguistic beliefs and attitudes of the speakers move in the same direction as the linguistic behavior of the community, suggesting that both agreement with nós and agreement with a gente are phenomena of the stereotype type, with a greater acceptance of the use of the variant nós + 3PS.---DOI: http:/dx.doi.org/10.12957/matraga.2017.26878
