RESUMO:

This research was carried out aiming to study the contributions of the Portuguese Language in the comprehension of mathematical statements. The research problem was determined in two questions, one central and one secondary: What are the contributions of the Portuguese Language in the understanding of mathematical statements in the teaching-learning process? And, how is the study of Portuguese Language configured in the curricula of undergraduate Mathematics in Universities located in Mato Grosso? We sought to answer these two questions throughout our qualitative research, of which we had only an initial hypothesis regarding the first question, we assumed that not knowing the morphosyntactic and semantic structure of the Portuguese Language (LP) can hinder the development of writing ability, interpretation and understanding of mathematical statements in the teaching-learning process, as it requires coherence and linguistic cohesion that favor the resolution of mathematical problems. For the second question, there was no initial hypothesis. To achieve the proposed objective, we opted for a bibliographic, documentary and field research. The documentary research consisted of: the study of the insertion of Portuguese Language or related subjects in the initial formation of the Mathematics teachers, in four Universities located in the State of Mato Grosso (IFMT, UFMT, UNEMAT and UNIC), in order to analyze the Pedagogical Projects of the Degree Course in Mathematics and; in the morphosyntactic and semantic analysis of the statements of the mathematical equations present in the tests and didactic activities carried out by the teachers of Elementary and Secondary Mathematics, from 3 state schools located in Araputanga-MT, in order to diagnose the presence and absence of cohesion and textual coherence, and the meaning of the statements that favor the understanding or not of the statements. The field research took place through semi-structured interviews for data collection, applied to a sample of 10 high school mathematics teachers from State Schools located in Araputanga-MT. The data collected in the field research were analyzed using the content analysis technique, in which six categories were created throughout the data analysis. The results showed that teachers present formative needs in text production and interpretation, grammar rules, verbal and nominal agreement, textual coherence and cohesion, etc. Regarding the insertion of the Portuguese Language or related subjects in the curricular structure of the undergraduate courses in the researched universities, only one offers such subject in 3 courses: UNEMAT (Barra do Bugres, Cáceres and Sinop). In the analysis of 14 tests and didactic activities we found the presence of a few spelling errors and situations of semantic inconsistency that compromise the comprehension of utterances, because mathematics teachers do not construct utterances, copy them from books and databases, compromising the capacity for creativity and professional innovation.
