摘要
This chapter contains an overview of diachronic and synchronic studies on Brazilian Portuguese wh-questions, and discusses the intriguing problem of apparent syntactic doublets, or optionality, in this domain. However, a careful examination of the diachronic order in which these patterns appear, and the variation exhibited in contemporary written and spoken corpora lead us to conclude that the co-occurring patterns do not constitute syntactic "doublets."
