Abstract
The formal equivalence of the Dirac's methods and the modified Faddeev -Jackiw approach, obtained by transferring the constraints from the co ordinates to the velocities, is shown. The relation between internal a nd noninternal gauge symmetries, and first class constraints are analy zed in this framework. As a particular case, the reparametrization inv ariance is also discussed.
