This paper aims to propose a discussion about the construction of the referent The place where I live in the V edition of the Portuguese Language Olympiad Writing the Future, while trying to hold a dialogue between the theory of referentiation and the concept of objectivity in brackets proposed by biologist Humberto Maturana. Part of this discussion includes the partial results of our master's research in the Postgraduate in Applied Linguistics Program, State University of Ceará. In this research, we analyze nine texts of opinion written by students of a state school in Fortaleza, produced and intended for this educational event. However, for the current work, we analyze just one text. We seek to achieve the approximation of the theories under discussion in the production of the texts, including the reference articulation that cover The place where I live in the analyzed text. From what we see, the construction of this reference exceeds relations between the words marked by direct expressions or predications attached to it. In fact, it occurs in relation to other related available in text and occurs before the mention by linguistic expressions, as already part of individual and collective buildings, marked by sociohistoric aspects and the intertextual relations with other sources.

A relação entre oralidade e escrita vem deixando de ser pensada em termos de uma contraposição reducionista que desconsidera os múltiplos aspectos envolvidos na estruturação dos gêneros textuais.Neste artigo, pretendemos discutir como as estratégias discursivas adotadas na negociação de sentidos estabelecida entre os interlocutores no Twitter aproximam esse gênero escrito de gêneros prototípicos orais, como a conversação face a face. Apoiando-nos nas contribuições teóricas de Gee (2006), Marcuschi (2002; 2006); Marcuschi e Dionísio (2007), Violi (2009), dentre outros autores, concluímos que, assim como outros gêneros emergentes das novas práticas sociais consolidadas a partir dos avanços tecnológicos ocorridos nas últimas décadas, o Twitter acomoda formas de comunicação híbridas que desafiam a visão dicotômica a respeito das modalidades da língua.
