Uruguayan Portuguese ({{lang|pt|português uruguaio}}, {{IPA-pt|poɾtuˈɣes uɾuˈɣwajo|local}}), also known as {{lang|pt|fronteiriço}} ({{IPA-pt|fɾõteˈɾiso|local}}) and {{lang|pt|portunhol riverense}} ({{IPA-pt|poɾtuˈɲɔɫ riveˈɾẽse|local}}), is a variety of Portuguese with heavy influence from Rioplatense Spanish. It is spoken in northern Uruguay, near the Brazilian border, mainly in the region of the twin cities of Rivera (Uruguay) and Santana do Livramento (Brazil). This section of the frontier is called Frontera de la Paz (Border of Peace), because there is no legal obstacle to crossing the border between the two countries.

The varieties of Uruguayan Portuguese share many similarities with the countryside dialects of the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, such as the denasalization of final unstressed nasal vowels, replacement of lateral palatal {{IPA|/ʎ/}} with semivowel {{IPA|/j/}}, no raising of final unstressed {{IPA|/e/}}, alveolar trill {{IPA|/r/}} instead of the guttural R, and lateral realization of coda {{IPA|/l/}} instead of L-vocalization.^[3]

Recent changes in Uruguayan Portuguese include the urbanization of this variety, acquiring characteristics from urban Brazilian Portuguese such as distinction between {{IPA|/ʎ/}} and {{IPA|/j/}}, affrication of {{IPA|/t/}} and {{IPA|/d/}} before {{IPA|/i/}} and {{IPA|/ĩ/}}, and other features of Brazilian broadcast media.^[4]

History

The origin of Portuguese in Uruguay can be traced back to the time of the dominion of the kingdoms of Spain and Portugal, and the Empire of Brazil. In those times, the ownership of those lands was not very well defined, passing back and forth from the hands of one crown to the other. Before its independence after the Cisplatine War in 1828, Uruguay was one of the provinces of the Empire of Brazil.

Portuguese was the only language spoken throughout northern Uruguay until the end of the 19th century. To assure the homogeneity of the newly formed country, the government made an effort to impose the Spanish language into lusophone communities through educational policies and language planning, and the bilingualism became widespread and diglossic.^[5]

The varieties of Uruguayan Portuguese vary in dialect continuum which range from Rioplatense Spanish to Brazilian Portuguese.{{citation needed|date=August 2015}} Nevertheless, it has one variant which is the most used, and could be taken as a case study: this variant is geographically located on the area having the cities of Rivera and Santana do Livramento as its center, and expanding over a strip of several kilometers parallel to the border, including territory of both nations.

Phonology and orthography

The Riverense language does not possess a formally defined orthography, but in this article an orthography of Portuñol will be presented in order to enable its phonemes to be represented in the most accurate and consistent possible way, highlighting the phonologic features of this language variety. It should be noted that not all Portuñol-speaking persons use the same pronunciation for the same words (as is the case with most languages). Nevertheless, the script that is chosen is very representative of the most frequent and distinctive features.

The chosen representation is the closest to the one that would be used if we tried to transcribe the phonemes to the Spanish language (because this is the language taught to Uruguayans, which is the nationality of the majority of speakers of this dialect), except for the phonemes that can't be represented through the Spanish alphabet, like, for example the nasal vowels.

Spanish vowels

The Spanish vowels are the ones which are pronounced like the five vowels of the Spanish language (they also exist in Portuguese):

letter	IPA	Portuñol	Pronunciation (IPA)	Spanish (Rioplatense dialect)	Portuguese	English
a	{{IPA\|a}}	papa	[ˈpapa]}}	papa	batata	potato
a	{{IPA\|a}}	catarata	[kataˈɾata]}}	catarata	catarata / queda d'água	waterfall
e	{{IPA\|e}}	peshe	[ˈpeʃe]}}	pez	peixe	fish
e	{{IPA\|e}}	detergente	[deterˈχente]}}	detergente	detergente	detergent
i	{{IPA\|i, j}}	cisco	[ˈsisko]}}	basura	lixo	garbage
		niño	[ˈniɲo]}}	nido	ninho	nest
		ciá	[sja]}}	cenar	jantar/cear	to have dinner
o	{{IPA\|o}}	ontonte	[onˈtonte]}}	anteayer	anteontem	day before yesterday
		oio	[ˈojo]}}	ojo	olho	eye
		poso	[ˈposo]}}	pozo	poço	well
u	{{IPA\|u, w}}	yururú	[ʒuɾuˈɾu]}}	triste, melancólico	triste, melancólico/jururu	sad, melancholic
		nu	[nu]}}	en el	no / em	in the (m.)
		acuá	[aˈkwa]}}	ladrar	latir/ladrar	to bark

Portuguese vowels

These vowels are found in Portuguese, but not in Spanish.

Semiopen vowels

They are like the vowels e and o, but pronounced in a more open way, closer to an a.

letter	IPA	Portuñol	Pronunciation (IPA)	Spanish	Portuguese	English
é	{{IPA\|ɛ}}	té	[tɛ]}}	té	chá	tea
		pél	[pɛl]}}	piel	pele	skin
		véia	[ˈvɛja]}}	vieja	velha	old (f.)
ó	{{IPA\|ɔ}}	fófóca	[fɔˈfɔka]}}	chisme	fofoca	gossip
ó	{{IPA\|ɔ}}	póso	[ˈpɔso]}}	puedo	posso	(I) can

Distinguishing the open-mid vowels (é, ó) is very important because they can completely change the meaning of a word, like in the following examples:

avó {{IPA|[aˈvɔ]}} (grandmother) and avô {{IPA|[aˈvo]}} (grandfather)

véio {{IPA|[ˈvɛjo]}} (old (m.)) and veio {{IPA|[ˈvejo]}} (he came - from the verb ví [to come])

véia {{IPA|[ˈvɛja]}} (old (f.)) and veia {{IPA|[ˈveja]}} (vein)

póso {{IPA|[ˈpɔso]}} ((I) can) and poso {{IPA|[ˈposo]}} (well)

Nasal vowels

The nasal vowels are the vowels which are produced by expiring the air partly through the nose and partly through the mouth. They do not exist in Spanish and therefore are generally derived from Portuguese words.

IPA	letters	Portuñol	Pronunciation (IPA)	Spanish	Portuguese	English
{{IPA\|ã}}	ã	masã	[maˈsã]}}	manzana	maçã	apple
		lã	[lã]}}	lana	lã	wool
		sã	[sã]}}	sana (adj.)	sã	healthy (f.)
	an (*)	cansha	[ˈkãʃa]}}	cancha	campo desportivo	sports ground
ẽ}}	en (*)	pênsaũ	[ˈpẽsaw̃]}}	piensan	pensam	(they) think
ĩ}}	in (**)	intonce	[ĩˈtõse]}}	entonces	então	then
{{IPA\|õ}}	õ	garsõ	[ɡarˈsõ]}}	mozo (de bar o restaurante)	garçom/empregado de mesa	waiter (bar, restaurant)
	õ	tõ	[tõ]}}	tono	tom	tone
	on (*)	intonce	[ĩˈtõse]}}	entonces	então	then
{{IPA\|ũ, w̃}}	ũ	ũ	[ũ]}}	uno	um	one (m.)
		cũtigo	[kũˈtiɣo]}}	contigo	contigo	with you
		niñũa	[niˈɲũa]}}	ninguna	nenhuma	no one (f.)
		maũ	[maw̃]}}	mano	mão	hand

(*) before s, sh, y, z, ce, ci.

(**) before s, sh, y, z, ce, ci, or when it is the first syllable and is not followed by ga, gue, gui, go, gu, ca, que, qui, co, cu or k.

Distinguishing nasal vowels is very important, because they can completely change the meaning of the word, like in the following examples:

paũ {{IPA|[ˈpaw̃]}} (bread) and pau {{IPA|[ˈpaw]}} (stick)

nũ {{IPA|[nũ]}} (in a (m.)) and nu {{IPA|[nu]}} (in the (m.))

nũa {{IPA|[ˈnũ.a]}} (in a (f.)) and núa {{IPA|[ˈnu.a]}} (naked (f.))

ũ {{IPA|[ũ]}} (one, a (m.)) and u {{IPA|[u]}} (the (m.))

cũ {{IPA|[kũ]}} (with) and cu {{IPA|[ˈku]}} (anus - vulgar term)

ũs {{IPA|[ũs]}} (some (m.)) and us {{IPA|[us]}} (the (m.pl.))
