Somos un mismo pueblo con culturas diversas

Sumario: We deal with the translation of kinship terms from the Tembé language to Brazilian Portuguese, in particular, kinship terms related to 1st and 2nd degree blood relatives – father, mother, children, siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, uncles, cousins and nephews. The data source for this study is the doctoral dissertation of Tabita Silva (2010), which presents examples of names of this semantic field, as well as a lexical comparative table of kinship names in Tembé and Guajajára, collected by this author, from 2006 to 2009; the Portuguese-Tembé Bilingual Dictionary of Max Boudin (1978); and the Dissertation of Marcia Carvalho (2001), which presents a record of the speech of the elders. We investigate kinship names of Tembé, aiming their translation into Portuguese. We show that kinship terms in Tembé, as well other terms of this language, have specificities when compared to Portuguese, demanding special attention from the translator.
