Among the approaches that explain language acquisition and its interfaces, the research of linguistic input explores the process of social interaction that stimulates the acquisition of linguistic structures. Our research is based on specialized literature, aiming at the comprehension of questions about linguistic variation and variation acquisition. For that, children are at the core of researches on input and of researches on the acquisition of the variation phenomena. The methodology of our bibliographic research encompasses the systematization of data from transversal studies, longitudinal studies and original essays. The results from the data were then compiled and debated, taking into account that variation acquisition in American and Brazilian studies open new ways to the acquisition phase of linguistic variation and also to the influence of extralinguistic factors, social factors and linguistic change as part of the acquisition phase of the variables present in a given language.
