This work describes the oral discourse of healthy elderly adults under the paradigm of the discursive-pragmatic functionality, whose basic unit is discourse as text production, interaction and enunciation context. This is a descriptive, transversal case study based on the oral discourse of two healthy elderly women describing the Cookies Theft picture task and dialoging in a semi-structured interview. The results were analyzed according to the number of information units of the Cookies Theft picture and the Discursive Functionality Protocol. The results indicated that both subjects used oral discursive movements of formulation and reparations by expansion, hesitation, substitution, repetition, insertion and modification of discourse. Those movements favored the collaborative process in which reorganization and reorientation of meaning functioned to promote natural interaction during language activity. Both subjects named 80% of the Cookies Theft information units.
