The main goal of this study is to observe if translators and adaptors have applied the standard norm of Brazilian Portuguese as a tool to carry out a temporal distancing effect derived from both lexical selection and adoption of particular linguistic structures that attain a semantic, syntactic and stylistic representation of such effect. The results show that, in fact, translators has resorted to strategic use of certain lexical items and grammatical structures that bring out a temporal distancing effect, but some editions have displayed hybrid linguistic structures in line with some informal register, which includes one of the adaptations analyzed, particularly destined for young readers.133-158porTranslation StudiesLinguistic hybridity normsOrality markersArtigo10.22168/2237-6321-31658WOS:000507926400008
