This work aims to understand how the designations "mother tongue" and "national language" change or remain the same in the documents that guide the Literature courses at the Federal University of Santa Maria and in the laws that resonated at the time of the production and implementation of these documents. The theoretical perspective employed lies at the intersection of materialist Discourse Analysis and the History of Linguistic Ideas. The research archive consists of national, state, and municipal laws, as well as institutional documents that guide the Literature course. The corpus of analysis consists of excerpts from the Course Project/Curriculum of the Bachelor's Degree in Letters – Full Licentiate – Qualification: Portuguese and Literatures of the Portuguese Language, Portuguese-French with Respective Literatures and Portuguese-English with Respective Literatures, from 1986, and from the Bachelor's Degree in Letters – Portuguese and Literatures of the Portuguese Language, from 2020, as well as excerpts from the legislation that constituted or determined these documents and subsequent legislation. From this research, it is possible to understand that the use of these designations carries meanings that impact the formation of individuals, especially in a country marked by linguistic diversity, in which, according to Guimarães (2007), "mother tongue" and "national language" have different functions, since, for many individuals, the former does not coincide with the latter.
