The paper explores translation in interpersonal grammar systems of Brazilian Portuguese and English, identifying its behavior in a multilingual environment. It aims at deploying translation equivalence, correspondence and shift at the grammar stratum in the multilingual environment to model interpersonal clause grammar. The multilingual environment is as a result modeled as the power set of resources in both languages and translation equivalence, formal correspondence and shifts are taken as tools for such modeling. Subsets of language-specific resources and their intersections – i.e., multilingual – between them can then be described. Language contact behavior is described through translation equivalence and shift, since it is a variation of language deployment. Through such modeling this paper shows how equivalence, correspondence and shift can be used as tools to model a multilingual environment. Moreover, it suggests the notion of ‘multilingual’ may refer both to the pervasive nature of grammar systems and grammar behavior of languages when in contact
