| description | This study has as its main objective to compare acoustically Brazilian Portuguese (BP) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) front vowels by teachers of English in western Rio Grande do Norte, a Brazilian state. BP [i, e, É›] and EFL [i, ɪ, É›, æ] vowels have been analysed. The study begins by presenting a literature overview section involving Portuguese-English interphonology. Methodology procedures involved data reanalysis of a previous study (BARBOZA, 2008), whose data collection involved production of tonic front vowels between stop consonants, in two-syllable words with stress in the first syllable in BP words, and one-syllable words in EFL, inserted in carrier-sentences "X. Diga X alto" and "X. say X again". Quantitative acoustic analysis involved data collection of F1, F2 and duration values of aforementioned vowels. Results indicated significant spectral overlap of BP/EFL vowels [i], BP [e] and EFL [ɪ], as well as BP [É›] and EFL [É›, æ]. Significant differences have been noticed involving BP and EFL vowels as regards duration as well. |

O estudo tem por objetivo comparar acusticamente as vogais anteriores do Português Brasileiro (PB) com as vogais correlatas do Inglês Língua Estrangeira (ILE) produzidas por professores de Inglês no oeste do Rio Grande do Norte. Analisamos as vogais [i, e, É›] do PB e [i, ɪ, É›, æ] do ILE. No referencial teórico, apresentamos uma revisão da literatura envolvendo a pesquisa acústica da interfonologia português-inglês. Procedimentos metodológicos envolveram a reanálise de dados coletados no estudo de Barboza (2008), cuja metodologia envolveu a produção de vogais anteriores tônicas, entre consoantes plosivas, em palavras dissílabas com acento na primeira sílaba no PB, e palavras monossílabas no Inglês, inseridas nas frases-veículos "X. Diga X alto" e "X. Say X again". A análise dos sons vocálicos obtidos através dos experimentos acima caracterizouse pela obtenção dos valores de F1, F2 e da duração das vogais supracitadas. Os resultados indicaram significativa sobreposição espectral entre as vogais [i] do PB e [i] do ILE, [e] do PB e [ɪ] do ILE bem como entre as vogais [É›] do PB e [É›, æ] do ILE, observando diferenças produzidas na variável de duração das vogais.
