Grupo PX de rádio amador: prática, caminhoneiro e inusitado

Abstract

In this article, I discuss some aspects from the amateur radio PX group. These aspects are related to the practice of this group, which is constituted, mostly, by truck drivers. So, the amateur radio seems to allow a kind of loneliness escape from and in the roads to these workers. In the PX group, there is a specific jargon, what does not mean that the unusual lexical aspect does not happen. I understand the unusual related to words or expressions that differ from those expected ones, according to the specific jargon and the popular culture, in enunciation via the amateur radio. The amateur radio operators usually have nicknames to the interaction via this media, what seems to make the unusual emerge more frequently, because of the protected face. In this way, I analyze, from an enunciative perspective, some unusual lexical aspects. For it, I base on Saussure (2006), Benveniste (2006), Authier-Revuz (1990, 2004), and others.
