This study analyzes the filling of the first person singular subject in Portuguese in the city of Feira de Santana. In order to achieve this research, we used two corpora denominated university level speakers and elementary school 1 speakers,a total of 24 surveys, twelve for each sample, which were divided into three age groups. The samples belong to the project called A Língua Portuguesa no Semiárido Baiano, based on the Núcleo de Estudos da Língua PortuguesaUniversidade Estadual de Feira de Santana- Ba.This research aims to verify if the Portuguese spoken in Feira de Santana has shown a tendency to fill the subject. In order to achieve this goal we compare the two samples as well as dialogue with other researches. The analysis took as theoretical assumption the principles of Quantitative Sociolinguistics that through the statistical model correlates the variable under study withsocial and linguistic factors, providing a value (relative importance) for each one. The analysis of the results indicated a greater realization of the subject onthe Portuguese spoken by the most educated people; the study in apparent time showed that the elementary school I Portuguese is in the process of a possible change.
