This study aims to describe and compare the phonological characteristics of European Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese preschool and school age children with Speech Sound Disorders (SSD). Speech samples for the European Portuguese Group (EPG) (n = 13) were collected using of . For the Brazilian Portuguese Group (BPG) (n = 13) of was applied. Different phonological measures were considered. Groups were matched according to sex, age, and percentage of correct consonants (revised). EPG presented more weak syllable deletion ( = .00); absolute index and relative index had a higher number of omissions ( = .003). BPG had more substitutions ( = .004). Intragroup analysis showed differences between groups in the occurrence of phonological processes (p ≤ 0.00). The most occurring was gliding of liquids, cluster reduction and devoicing in both groups; for the absolute index and relative index, the EPG presented differences in omission ( = .003), and the BPG in substitution ( = .002). Results suggested differences between groups in phonological processes occurrence and a relation with the most frequent type of error. These findings may occur due to the variation of phonetic and phonological characteristics between European Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese in the two phonological tests. Linguistic variations had not directly influenced the measures studied, which characterized SSD. European Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese children with SSD demonstrated similar characteristics as to the type of errors and phonological processes.
本研究旨在描述和比较有言语语音障碍（SSD）的欧洲葡萄牙语和巴西葡萄牙语学龄前和学龄儿童的语音特征。为了收集欧洲葡萄牙语组（EPG）（n=13）的语音样本，我们使用了《》。对于巴西葡萄牙语组（BPG）（n=13），我们应用了《》。考虑了不同的语音测量方法。根据性别、年龄和正确辅音百分比（修订后）对组进行了匹配。EPG 表现出更多的弱化音节删除（ =0.00）；绝对指数和相对指数有更多的省略（ =0.003）。BPG 有更多的替代（ =0.004）。组内分析显示，两组在语音过程的发生上存在差异（p≤0.00）。最常见的语音过程是两组的液体滑行、辅音群缩减和去音；对于绝对指数和相对指数，EPG 在省略方面存在差异（ =0.003），BPG 在替代方面存在差异（ =0.002）。结果表明，两组在语音过程的发生上存在差异，且与最常见的错误类型有关。这些发现可能是由于两种语音测试中欧洲葡萄牙语和巴西葡萄牙语在语音和语音特征上的差异造成的。语言变化并没有直接影响所研究的测量方法，这是 SSD 的特点。有 SSD 的欧洲葡萄牙语和巴西葡萄牙语儿童在错误类型和语音过程方面表现出相似的特征。
