This article aims to describe the linguistic situation in Brazil through the centuries emphasizing the most important points of history, ethnic groups, spoken languages in every century and the language policies which were applied. The discovery of Brazil and its colonization is a unique cultural and language situation. This article makes a sociolinguistic panorama of Brazil from the period of multilingual territory inhabited by indigenous tribes, who spoke hundreds of native languages, to the period of political monolingual territory, but with multilingualism located in certain parts of Brazil.
