Anthropologist Benedito Prezia stated at the book launch ceremony that Navarro is fulfilling a historical debt with Tupi. He pointed out that the last dictionary (which was, in fact, a vocabulary) was published in 1950 and that until then, the main reference for Tupi was still the dictionary from the

As Old Tupi is a dead language, the dictionary has a philological approach. It was based on old texts rather than native speakers, making it a historical dictionary. The entry words were extracted from texts written in the 16th and 17th centuries. The purpose of this limitation is to avoid mixing Old

Divided into three parts, it starts with a Portuguese–Tupi vocabulary. The second part is the Tupi–Portuguese dictionary itself, containing nearly eight thousand entry words (or lexemes), making it the most complete Tupi dictionary ever compiled to date. The third part includes a list of two thousand

The same critic also argued that Navarro's work allegedly fails to mention other important scholars of the Tupi language. He also questioned some of the etymologies presented by the author.
