The present study has the intention of describing and analyzing the perceptions of informants about the linguistic identity formation of the bilingual communities of Virmond (Portuguese- Polish) and Candói (Portuguese-Ukrainian), both located in south-central Paraná. The question that guides this research is: how is the linguistic identity built in a community that dominates itself bilingual (Portuguese-Polish), (Portuguese-Ukrainian), but that, in practice, little uses the minority variety in their social interactions. The aim of this study is, based on the data collected with the metalinguistic questionnaire, describe and analyze the bilingualism degree of the informants and, from it, draw their identity profile. The methodology and theory used in this research is based on the Multidimensional and Relational Dialectology. In order to collect the data, it was adopted a metalinguistic questionnaire and the choice of informants comes from the cross model developed by Thun (1996). From these analyzes, it was possible to conclude that, both in Virmond and in Candói, the descendants identify themselves because of the fact that they fell Polish/Ukrainian descendants more than the language, even though, the group the identifies the most with its ethnical origin is the Ukrainian. Furthermore, in both studied communities, the older ones identify more as descendants and, from these, the women have greater sense of belonging to the Polish/Ukrainian ethnicity and to the immigration language. It is also noticed that in Virmond the social class does not interfere in the identity formation, and that, in Candói it is not possible to state that, because two descendants of Ca identify themselves and two of the Ca don’t fell Ukrainian. Regarding the view of the other, from the data of the control group, it was concluded that the view that the "outsiders" have on the descendants of Polish and Ukrainian is favorable, however, it is not linked to language but to the cultural icons of both communities.
