O Acordo Ortográfico de 1990 e suas intervenções na descrição gramatical

The text of the orthographic agreement enforced since the first of January of 2009 has a strong political meaning to the Portuguese language speaking nations. Its elaboration, however, has embodied some decisions that surpassed the limits of orthography and resulted in description changes in the fields of phonetics, morphology, and syntax. Key words: linguistic policy, orthography, description of Portuguese.
