Dictionary Of Old Tupi
The ''Dicionário de tupi antigo: a língua indígena clássica do Brasil'' (English: ''Dictionary of Old Tupi: the classical indigenous language of Brazil'') was compiled by the Brazilian lexicographer and philologist Eduardo de Almeida Navarro and published (in Portuguese only) in 2013. The work was conceived with the goal of spreading knowledge of the Tupi language to a broader public. Divided into three parts, it starts with a Portuguese–Tupi vocabulary. The second part is the Tupi–Portuguese dictionary itself, containing nearly eight thousand entry words (or lexemes), making it the most complete Tupi dictionary ever compiled to date. The third part includes a list of two thousand words from Brazilian Portuguese that have their origins in Tupi (mostly place and city names). As Old Tupi is a dead language, the dictionary has a philological approach. It was based on old texts rather than native speakers, making it a historical dictionary. The entry words were extracted fro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Old Guarani
Classical Guarani, also known as Missionary Guarani or Old Guarani (''abá ñeȇ́'' 'the people's language') is an extinct variant of the Guarani language. It was spoken in the region of the thirty Jesuit missions among the Guaraní, Jesuit missions among the Guarani (current territories of Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil). The Jesuits studied the language for around 160 years, assigning it a writing system and consolidating several dialects into one unified language. Classical Guarani went extinct gradually after their Suppression of the Society of Jesus, suppression in 1767.

Structuralism
In sociology, anthropology, archaeology, history, philosophy, and linguistics, structuralism is a general theory of culture and methodology that implies that elements of human culture must be understood by way of their relationship to a broader system. It works to uncover the structures that underlie all the things that humans do, think, perceive, and feel. Alternatively, as summarized by philosopher Simon Blackburn, structuralism is: Blackburn, Simon, ed. 2008. "Structuralism." In '' Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy'' (2nd rev. ed.). Oxford: Oxford University Press. . p. 353. e belief that phenomena of human life are not intelligible except through their interrelations.

Catecismo Na Língua Brasílica
Old Tupi, Ancient Tupi or Classical Tupi (also spelled as Tupí) is an extinct Tupian language which was spoken by the aboriginal Tupi people of Brazil, mostly those who inhabited coastal regions in South and Southeast Brazil. It belongs to the Tupi–Guarani language family, and has a written history spanning the 16th, 17th, and early 18th centuries. In the early colonial period, Tupi was used as a '' lingua franca'' throughout Brazil by Europeans and aboriginal Americans, and had literary usage, but it was later suppressed almost to extinction. Today, only one modern descendant is living, the Nheengatu language. The names Old Tupi or classical Tupi are used for the language in English and by modern scholars (it is referred to as in Portuguese), but native speakers called it variously "the good language", "common language", "human language", in Old Tupi, or, in Portuguese, "general language", "Amazonian general language", "Brazilian language".
