Although the caipira accent originated in the state of São Paulo, the language of the state capital is now a very different variety close to standard Portuguese, albeit with some remotely Italian-influenced elements. Caipira is spoken mostly in the countryside.
Phonetically, the most important differences in comparison with standard Brazilian Portuguese are the approximant [ɹ] for ⟨rr⟩, and the merger of /ʎ/ (written ⟨lh⟩ in Portuguese) into the semivowel /j/. Coda ⟨l⟩ is frequently modified into [ɹ], instead of the [w] used in most of Brazil. There are other important changes, as in the following examples:

There are some significant differences in caipira morphology and syntax. For example:
The negative adverb não has distinct strong and weak forms, não [nɐ̃ʊ̯̃] in short replies, and num [nʊ̃] for negative phrases.
In plural forms only the article or pronoun is inflected, and the adjective often remains uninflected, e.g.: standard Portuguese: essas coisas bonitas [ˈɛsɐsˈkoizɐz bʊˈnitɐs] "those beautiful things" (those-PL beautiful-PL thing-PL) ↔ caipira: essas coisa bonita [ˈɛsɐsˈkoizɐ bʊˈnitɐ] (those-PL beautiful-∅ thing-∅).
Despite these differences, a speaker of standard Portuguese has no difficulty at all understanding caipira.
Like other Portuguese accents in Brazil, caipira is not and has never been considered a separate language. It has no tradition in literature, nor a definite standard for spelling and it is merely considered as a colloquial mode of Portuguese.
Non-standard orthography intended to convey Caipira pronunciation is featured prominently in the popular children's comic book Chico Bento, in which some (but not all) characters speak in this dialect.
