Resumo: Este artigo investiga a duracao de silabas na producao de sentencas ambiguas do tipo SN1-V-SN2-Atributo no portugues brasileiro, tais como ‘O pai visitou o filho feliz’. Fonologicamente, as diferentes leituras sao explicadas pelo fato de o atributo poder ou nao se juntar ao SN2 na construcao do dominio da frase fonologica (NESPOR; VOGEL, 1996). Angelo e Santos (2015) testaram essas sentencas e encontraram apenas um direcionamento de comportamento, mas nao uma diferenca significativa nos resultados a depender da duracao. No entanto, a quantidade de dados e seu balanceamento afetavam os resultados. Aqui, aplicamos o experimento a mais informantes e balanceamos as estruturas para fins de comparacao. Os resultados encontrados revelaram diferencas significativas observando o tipo de estrutura – os falantes alongaram as sentencas com interpretacao nao local. Os resultados chamam a atencao ainda para dois tipos de estruturas que podem interferir no processo de alongamento, impedindo-o: sentencas em que o atributo e formado por adjetivos deverbais e sentencas que possibilitam construcoes de small clause. Palavras-chave: aposicao local; aposicao nao local; fronteira prosodica; adjetivos deverbais. Abstract: This article discusses the production of syllable duration in Brazilian Portuguese as a prosodic cue in ambiguous sentences with a NP1-V-NP2-attribute structure (e.g. ‘The father visited his son happy’). Phonologically, the two different interpretations can be explained by the fact that attributes may or may not join NP2 in the construction of the phonological phrase domain (NESPOR; VOGEL, 1996). Angelo and Santos (2015) tested these sentences and found only a bias toward a lengthening when the interpretation is non-local (the father is happy). However, their study lacks a reasonable quantity of data and balance of structures. Here, we rerun the experiment controlling the mentioned problems. Overall results showed significant differences for type of syntactic structure - speakers produced high attachment sentences longer than low attachment ones. The findings signal also to two kinds of structures that may interfere in the process, blocking the lengthening: sentences which the attribute is formed by a non-verbal adjective and sentences which allow small clause constructions. Keywords: low Attachment; high attachment; prosodic boundary; deverbal adjective.
