Resumo

Foreignisms are a means of frequent and productive expansion in the language. In the context of English Language teaching for youth and adult education, EJA, foreignisms, especially anglicisms are studied in order to verify the marked presence of English in the Portuguese country. Based on these considerations, this research aims to contribute to the improvement of the activities on foreignness proposed in an EJA textbook, aiming to highlight the importance of lexicon studies as a component of textuality. To this end, we raise how the official documents for the English Language teaching of EJA high school approach the studies of foreignness. After verifying that, in these documents, the studies of grammar and lexicon should be centered on the text, we collect and analyze the exercises in which foreignness appears linked to discursive genres. Our analysis focused on the: "Languages and cultures: language and codes: high school: youth and adult education" (ALMEIDA, 2013), currently used in English language classes. So, we reflect on how the activities exploit the foreignness, seeking support in the theoretical assumptions of loan neology, looking at the study of the lexicon in the classroom. Among the scholars of the subject, we highlight: Alves (1994), Biderman (2001), Carvalho (2009), Fiorin (2001), Rodrigues (1992), Timbane (2012). Finally, we suggest pedagogical proposals that explore the presence of foreignisms in authentic texts intended for the general public. We consider important in the elaboration of these activities the recent discussions undertaken in the Common National Curriculum Base (BRASIL, 2018), for the teaching of languages based on discursive genres, among them the digital genres present in practical situations of language use in contemporary times.
