Vocabulário na língua brasílica (lit. 'vocabulary in the Brazilian language') is a document on the Tupi language in the 16th century. According to Serafim Leite, its author was Leonardo do Vale, who died in 1591. For Eduardo de Almeida Navarro, the publication of the work three centuries later marked the emergence of Tupinology, as it made it possible to understand the differences between Tupi and the General Languages. According to Antônio Lemos Barbosa, although it is older than Antonio Ruiz de Montoya's Tesoro de la lengua guaraní and richer in ethnological information, Vocabulário na língua brasílica is inferior to it in size and in other respects.
