Therefore, it is necessary to understand the gaps in the PFL textbooks and work towards providing better conditions for approaches that generate real communication and that the language in use is the focus of the possibilities of interaction. That said, our investigation, which is qualitative in nature, aims to analyze how the competence fazer pedidos is presented in PFL textbooks and how it is approached according to the recommendations of the grammatical standard and in an impractical and/or functional way. In our analyses, we used three manuals for teaching PFL which include the aforementioned competence: Novo Avenida Brasil 1 (LIMA et al., 2008); NOTE 10: Português do Brasil (DIAS; FROTA, 2015); and SAMBA!: Curso de Língua Portuguesa para Estrangeiros (FERRAZ; PINHEIRO, 2020). We mapped the uses proposed by the TB, comparing them to the recurrent varieties in the language in use. As a result, this investigation points to the need to complement the textbook with teaching materials that make the PFL teaching process didactic, with a view to developing the students’ communicative and interactive competence. Furthermore, we noticed the lack of textbooks in offering learners forms of contact with the language that go beyond the prescription. Theoretically, we base ourselves on the meanings of foreign language teaching methods with Larsen-Freeman (2000); stages of grammatical learning with a communicative approach with Brown (2007); Bizarro (2017); Kramsch (2013); Mendes (2011); Meyer (2013); Silveira (1998); Santos and Alvarez (2010); among other theoreticians.Acesso AbertoPortuguês Língua Estrangeira (PLE)Livros didáticos de PLECompetência - fazer pedidosPragmáticaAbordagem comunicativaInterculturalidademasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LINGUISTICA
