the outside world has been walled off. American pop music is illegal here and you can get executed for watching soap operas. This is not a make-believe world in a science fiction novel. It's a 46,000 square mile nation hanging off the east coast of China. It is one of the poorest nations in the world and it is armed with nuclear weapons. It is North Korea. Immediately to the south lies a nation with one of the world's richest economies. About one-third of all phones and TVs are made here. The people of this nation are among the world's most educated. Unemployment is low, job security is high, and workers in this nation enjoy the highest salaries in Asia. It is South Korea. The people of this nation share origins with their northern neighbor, but they have since grown far apart. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (known to Westerners as North Korea) was founded in 1945 after World War II. Their neighbor at the end of the Korean Peninsula, South Korea or the Republic of Korea, was established at the same time. These two nations have an unusual history. For one thing, they have technically been at war since 1950. Though they were born at the same time, these two countries had different parents. The United States supported South Korea in its infancy. China and the Soviet Union supported North Korea. The U.S. and the Soviet Union may have ended World War II as allies, but they had different ways of organizing their societies. The U.S. is a capitalist country. That means that some people are rich and some people are poor. Resources are distributed unevenly. Business are owned by private entities. The Soviet Union claimed to have a communist system. That means that everybody supposedly gets the same. Resources are distributed more evenly. Business are owned in "common" by the government. These two superpower nations raised North and South Korea in their own images. The two Koreas went to war in 1950. The North attacked and took over much of South Korea. But the United States jumped in and pushed the North Koreans back to the Chinese border. Then China got involved and pushed the Americans and South Koreans back. The nations agreed to a ceasefire. Millions of people were dead and the living returned to their original boundaries. The war never officially ended, though combat has ceased for the most part. After the war, South Korea was one of the poorest nations in the world. In 1960 the average citizen made $79 a year. The country did not have a lot of natural resources to sell, but they did have many hardworking people. During the 1960s, the country began manufacturing labor-intensive products. Selling these products to people in other nations made South Korea rich. They now have one of the largest and most thriving economies in the world. As of 2012, the average South Korean citizen makes around $32,020 a year. The economy of North Korea is dramatically different. Since it's birth in the 1940s, North Korea has been one of the most secluded countries in the world. They promote an idea of self-reliance that they call Juche. Under this idea, they do little to no trading with other nations. Up until the 1980s, they received large cash infusi

A que conclusão chega o professor sobre a língua padrão ao compará-la com as normas de conduta da etiqueta social?

Texto: O professor dizia:
"Isso está errado, isso não se diz."
Como não se diz?' A criança repete o que ouve. Seus pais só dizem isso, e são advogados, professoras primárias...
O outro erro era:
"Isso não é português".
Ora, se não é português, tem que ser outra língua, francês, inglês, alemão...
São dois erros de pedagogia. O professor de hoje reconhece que o aluno vem com a sua modalidade linguística.
Uma língua que só tem uma modalidade é uma língua morta.
O ideal é que o aluno seja poliglota na própria língua, que ele aprenda o maior número de realidades da sua língua e até a língua padrão, porque senão vai cometer vários erros de tradução na própria língua. Como a história do sujeito que foi para o Rio Grande do Sul. Quando chegou ao Paraná, leu em uma placa: "Atenção, tartarugas na estrada". Ele disse para a mulher: "Eu vou diminuir a marcha. A primeira tartaruga que aparecer, você apanha e a gente leva de “souvenir”.
Atravessou o Paraná, Santa Catarina, e nada de tartaruga. Só depois descobriu que tartaruga é quebra-mola.
Claro que todas essas normas de correção, próprias de cada variedade, têm o seu limite: a propriedade do texto. Se você constrói um texto que é uma carta íntima a um amigo, tem a possibilidade de utilizar construções que não estão apoiadas nem documentadas pelas normas da língua padrão. Mas a natureza do termo é que leva a isso. Essa relatividade existe em todas as obrigações sociais.
Quando a gente recebe um convite para uma festa, está lá no convite: traje passeio, ou esporte, ou rigor. O que é isso? É que existe uma etiqueta social. A língua padrão é a etiqueta cultural. Um tipo de modalidade que não é para usar todos os dias.
Há pessoas até que exageram, e o resultado é que normalmente não são entendidas. Tenho um amigo, professor de português, que só fala a língua exemplar, padrão.
Uma vez, saindo do Pedro II, foi assaltado. Gritou, e não apareceu ninguém. Ele ficou aborrecidíssimo. Voltou ao Pedro II e reclamou.
"mas você não gritou? Não pediu socorro?", perguntaram.
"Eu gritei, mas não apareceu ninguém!"
"Mas o que você disse?"
"Eu gritei 'Peguem-no! Peguem-no!".
O limite é a adequação.
