Photometric searches for Be stars in environments with different metallicities have led to the discovery of many Be-like star variables. The knowledge of these types of variables is still fragmentary. This work presents the preliminary results of analyzing FLAMES+GIRAFFE spectra of a sample of these Be-like stars that we have found in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC).
