Abstract

This paper deals with the coming of foreign students more specifically Timorese students who joined the University of International Integration of Lusofonia Afro Brasileira-UNILAB, in the academic class of nursing 2012.1 Campus da Liberdade in the City of Redenção-CE, through the approximation and exchange of experiences lived among the countries that integrate communities of Portuguese-speaking countries – CPLP. The objective was to analyze the difficulties of receiving information and learning suffered by the Timorese students of the UNILAB Nursing course and as specific reasons: to investigate the linguistic barriers that cause the difficulties of receiving the Information to Timorese students, assessing the difficulties of receiving information and learning, understanding sociolinguistics as a means of humanization for nursing practices, aiming to make use of sociolinguistics to facilitate the transfer of Health Information in helping to learn techniques and procedures that will provide greater support to future professionals to develop their functions, providing better care, comfort and well-being to patients in Health units where they will act in the future. In this way, we consolidate the theoretical framework based on Ferdinand de Saussure, for developing linguistics as an autonomous science, which had great influence on the theory of literature and on the cultural studies that supported structuralism, Humberto Maturana with the creation of Autopoiese that deals with the "self-production" of human beings and Louis-Jean Calvet that deals with Sociolinguistics. The qualitative research where we use the Sociolinguistic interview method and as research instruments the collection of narratives of personal experiences, where communication is made through the perception of the language of the other while being and not merely as an object of study, improving relationships between people and providing humanized health to society.
