Retórica como ciencia de la expresividad (presupuestos para una retórica general)
Authors: García Berrio Antonio
Published: April 2016

This article deals with the reactivation of Rhetoric as the general science of text. General Rhetoric, in which linguistic and poetic studies are included, becomes the most complete science in the analysis of literary and non-literary discourse. The recovery of the genuine state of Rhetoric, with Poetics and the utilization of the categories of Text Linguistics, is felt to be the best way of establishing General Rhetoric, in which the study of elocutio is given an adequate place, and the role of inventio, dispositio and actio is stressed. The author sets up the specialization, as Literary Rhetoric, of a very important section within General Rhetoric. This Literary Rhetoric is constituted by the contribution of both classical Rhetoric and classical and linguistic Poetics.
Un tipo de construcciones pronominales en español: los verbos con incrementación pronominal obligatoria
Authors: Hernández Terrés José Miguel
Published: April 2016

The aim of this article is to analyze the syntactico-semantic behaviour of a part of verbal lexicon well delimited in Spanish, that corresponds to the minimal structure verb + se + prepositional syntagma as a stable form in verbs like acordarse de, quejarse de, fijarse en, etc. We interpret the pronominal form as a middle voice morpheme that constantly establishes the limits of process or action within the domain of subject, and clearly maintains the difference from other verbs in which the pronominal form has other functions. The prepositional syntagma must be considered as a semantically obligatory element, syntactically performable in every case as a prepositional form, and pragmatically performable within the relations of enunciation.
Negación y elipsis
Authors: Bosque Muñoz Ignacio
Published: April 2016

This paper deals with the syntax and semantics of elliptical expressions in negative clauses. VP deletion in negative structures is discussed in detail and some differences with gapped sentences are pointed out. Contrary to what is proposed by Hankamer and Sag, «stripping» is shown not to be a rule of deletion, although it has some formal coincidences with «gapping». The final section of this paper comments on some of the fundamental problems of deletion in the theory of grammar.
¿Es posible una «historia de las ideas lingüísticas en España»?
Authors: Abad Nebot Francisco
Published: April 2016

The present article deals with some basic problems which are still raised in the historiography of linguistic ideas in Spain. We discuss the want of a well established list of authors, in which the most important ones would be stressed, and also the incorrect interpretation of the works of established authors, in some cases things never said by these authors being attributed to them. These considerations are exemplified by reference to Antonio de Nebrija, Lope de Vega, Fray Martín Sarmiento and Unamuno.
Contextualidad y clausura: «pues mi pena veis...»
Authors: Herrero Blanco Ángel
Published: April 2016

Poetic closure and the related question of textual unity are problems which enable us to discover thematic and formal means whereby verbal artistic structures are delimited and defined. The aim of this article is to analyze the various levels of textual closure in a traditional poem. In opposition to linguistic explanations of literariness, this exercise attemps to define poetic closure as a symbolic device that transforms the literariness in a Peircean deloma. Successful closure is achieved when predetermined patterns of terminal features provide a perspective from which the internal elements of the poem may be viewed both in their relationship to one another and as a comprehensive whole. Starting form a hypothetical etymon, microtextual procedures show analogous amphibologies, revealing at the same time a concealed play of protosigns. Finally a rhythmical interpretation of the poem confirms its extensional strenght.

El artículo en la dinámica del texto literario
Authors: Chico Rico Francisco
Published: April 2016

This essay undertakes, in the first place, a theoretical approach to the traditional category of the Spanish article from the point of view of text linguistics or, more properly speaking, from a pragmatic-linguistic one, since we assume the interdependent relation among the different components which integrate the general communicative field; and, secondly, a modest and specific practical contribution —by bringing the results of the theoretical considerations to bear on Garcilaso de la Vega's «Canción V»— to the solution of such an arduous problem as literarity.
Análisis de las lexías complejas en documentos medievales murcianos
Authors: Díez de Revenga Torres Pilar
Published: April 2016

The structure of a series of documents referring to donations and transactions, written in the Kingdom of Murcia in the XIIIth century, is analyzed in this paper. Every document is considered as a microtext divided into several sections, according to the models presented by Prof. G. del Ser Quijano —in the juridical aspect— and Prof. Roudil and Metzeltin —in the linguistic one—. Once the texts are analyzed according to the proposed scheme, we group them bearing in mind their structures and comparing one to another. Likewise, the complex lexies occurring in every section and repeated in their equivalents of other documents are studied by us ... They are inventoried and their variants and antecedents are studied, considering some morphosyntactic aspects.
La ordenación de las reglas y la fonología léxica
Authors: García-Bellido Paloma
Published: April 2016

In this paper it has been shown that certain irregularities in the verbal system of Spanish do not need to be explained as a consequence of stipulating two opposite orderings in the Spanish Grammar. We have offered a new alternative within a much more restricted Phonological framework. This alternative makes crucial use of Universal Principles such as The Elsewhere Condition and Level-ordered Morphology. The goal of this paper is to show that only one ordering seems to be possible, moreover that none of the criteria used so far to justify «double ordering» such as «paradigmatic uniformity» and «paradigmatic irregularity» or «preferable» orderings are required any longer in the Theory. This lexical approach has led us to give account not only of irregularities in the verbal Spanish system but also to describe other morphophonological facts of Spanish in a very straightforward fashion.
Naturaleza sintáctica de las formas siglares: el cambio funcional
Authors: Rodríguez González Félix
Published: April 2016

The aim of this study is to analyse the various types of syntactic roles played by Spanish and English acronyms. These roles include those which derive from the original grammatical function of the acronyms and also those adopted as a result of the semantic transformations the acronyms may undergo in the course of time. After emphasizing the nominal value usually attached to acronyms, the paper examines other secondary grammatical categories which are obtained primarily by way of the functional shift. The essay also tries to define the linguistic status, the relative frequency and the contexts in which the different types of acronyms occur. Finally the author points out the great plasticity of English acronyms, especially those which are frequently used in ordinary language or in the technical speech of certain jargons.
Pragmática y relación intratextual: el caso de hasta, incluso y ni siquiera
Authors: Fuentes Rodríguez Catalina
Published: April 2016

In our language there are several adverbs that behave in an unusual way. So, the ones that have been chosen are those that constitute a micro-system on the basis of their polar positive/negative opposition. They are syntagm modifiers but also add certain pragmatic or presuppositional features that contribute to the establishment of communicative cohesion. Thus, in order to find out their significative value, they have been analysed in connexion with the concepts assertion-presupposition. These elements point to others found in the text or the situational context of hearer and speaker. They also give cohesion to the text and establish a pragmatic connexion, at the same time as they seem to have a rhematic function in the text. Their field goes beyond, therefore, the sentence boundaries, so that it is necessary to analyse them textually. At the same time, all their formal variations are discussed, and distinguished from other functions of the same elements, which are then considered from a different view of the adverb class.
El desarrollo de la sintaxis posterior
Authors: Rosel Jesús
Published: April 2016

This article fits the results of the development of «posterior syntax» to various cognitive aspects conceived as antinomies (or explicative hypothesis of opposed character) which arise in the psycology of language (autonomy/functionality of language; competence capacity linguistic performance; predominance of cognition predominance of language in human development). The aim of this study was to verify how the syntactic capacity of a child evolves, through two tests based on oral narratives: the telling of stories and the description of characters.
Modalidades actanciales en los sonetos de Gutierre de Cetina
Authors: Fernández Rodríguez Amelia
Published: April 2016

The work we present about Gutierre de Cetina's poetry is based on Antonio García Berrio's Text-typology of the Classical Sonnets. This article aims at studying the technical procedures in the argumentative construction of Gutierre de Cetina's sonnets, especifically the questions involved in a basic aspect of the theory, the actantial modalities. So we have illustrated the distant attitude towards the Lady and we have remarked a pronounced tendency to a dramatic configuration of the sonnet, as soon as the rigid adaptation of the traditional matters in comparison with the flexibility that they acquire in Garcilaso's poetry.
A propósito de las relaciones sintácticas oracionales: categorías y clases de funciones
Authors: Vera Luján Agustín
Published: April 2016

This work studies the syntactic functions in the sentence as relations that can be represented in the way of metalinguistic signs. We propose the definition of these sign functions from a double perspective: on the one hand, considering their relations to the sentence unit, getting this way its definition as categories of functions; on the other hand, their relations to other sentence functions. From this perspective, we will obtein their characterization as classes of functions. The analysis of these syntactical functions from this point of view implies the extension of the traditional concept of linguistic significant beyond a mere phonic nature, so that we will consider as significants of categories and classes of functions, respectively, certain articulations of monemes and the compatibility with other functional classes.
La "oración compuesta por subordinación" en la gramática de Eduardo Benot
Authors: Martínez Linares María Antonia
Published: April 2016

This paper deals with the analysis of subordinate clauses in Eduardo Benot's grammar. Benot is one of the most interesting authors in the Spanish grammar tradition in the end of the nineteenth century, but his approach to complex sentences is rather different from the usual analysis carried out by most traditional grammarians. The object of this paper is to show that Benot's treatment of subordinate clauses is related to his functional point of view about grammar, and as a result, Benot is far from considering complex sentences as "composed" by the simple union of separate sentences.
Dos casos de interlenguaje en registro escrito en Santo Domingo (siglo XIX): los documentos en español de Toussaint L'Ouverture y del Presidente Boyer
Authors: Granda Germán de
Published: April 2016

The author uses the concept of interlanguage as a theoretical model to examine the morphological and syntactic characteristics of a corpus of texts of an official nature written (in 1801-1802 and 1822, respectively) in Spanish by French-speaking Haitian authors. As regards the modality of the corpus examined, the results of the analysis seem to bear out the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH) rather than the Identity Hypothesis (IH) in relation to the nature of the Spanish interlanguage used by these French-speaking Haitians. This is especially clear in the considerable amount of interference in the texts under study, which are also characterized, as the contrary, by an almost total absence of the phenomena of grammatical simplification and generalization.
Sobre algunas condiciones pragmáticas de la posición del sujeto en español
Authors: Meyer-Hermann Reinhard
Published: April 2016

With regard to Spanish whose word-order is supposed to be «pragmatically controlled» (Givón, 1983), what has to be done is empirically based investigation in order to prove suppositions of that kind. The main proposal of the present study consists in the discussion of research relative to (pragmatic) conditions of word order in (colloquial) Spanish. One of the most important studies in this field, the Bentivoglio/Weber (1986) study, introduces the concept of «identifiability» in order to overcome the simple dicotomy of «old» vs. «new information». The empirical part of this article consists in an application of the Bentivoglio/Weber (1986) methodology to a corpus of spoken Castilian. It will be shown that the concept of identifiability has to be conceived of as an interactive procedure.
El texto, lugar de encuentro de la semiótica
Authors: Albert Galera Josefina
Published: April 2016

So as to answer the questions which arise when we approach the topic of how language works, and where the sender and the receiver are totally involved, we have tried to list the determining factors in a successful communication. If we start thinking how this communication takes place, and if we consider the need of integrating all the elements which somehow participate in the building up of a text, we establish three types of components, which integrated in a modal, may explain any text of natural language, the speakers, the socio-cultural parameters, the speech acts, and the phonic parameters. The first level is the contextual meaning where we study the concepts of «connection» and «coherence», and the «frame», which organizes the conventional knowledge and the specific situation in which the message is sent. The contextuality, tells as about the role that the sender and the receiver play in communication, and how its meaning and the way both are present, determine up to a certain extent the efficiency of the message, in which the presuppositions are fundamental. Finally, the consideration of the extratextual parameters is really a must so as to fully interpretet the message. Anything which has to do with the texto should be taken into account. So, the time-space coordinates may explain the use of some rethorical figures and literary imagery, and sometimes those coordinates are a must for the interpretation of a text. The three levels of study already mentioned, are integrated in a diagram explained at the end of this paper. All these components are integrated in a system of rules, as followes: TEXT -» ET (TD, TL, TF, TO, TT) + I(CC, ICE, II) + SoCu (TLi, T, L) + Act.H + PFo)), which should be read as: The TEXT is defined as a relationship between the ENUNCIATIONS OF THE TEXT, the SPEAKERS, the SOCIO-CULTURAL parameters, and SPEECH-ACTS and the PHONIC PARAMETERS.
Anotaciones sobre el uso de las formas el y este / ese / aquel como femeninos
Authors: Bravo García Eva María
Published: April 2016

The essay is about the use of the forms el y este / ese / aquel before nouns and adjectives which begin with stressed /a-/. General approach to this problem appears included in the Academic Grammar very clearly, but varieties in different speak levels are frequent. Author, starting from a survey between university students, shows us how, in spite of the knowledge that they have, there are sintagmatic combinations which express important doubts, so in may people the confusion is considerably high, this fact involves that the Norm isn't placed on speaker's mind, it can produce confusions and changes on gender's use.
'Anuncio a V.S. las presentes Pasquas deseando las pase muy alborozadas': cómo felicitar en el siglo XVII
Authors: Abad Merino Mercedes
Published: April 2016

In the Books of Correspondence of the Archivo Municipal de Orihuela (A.M.O.) in Alicante, a really large diversity of letters —from the most official to the most personal— can be found. On this occasion, we selected a sample of what we may consider as «Christmas cards», which are dated from 1679 and which were sent by people in charge of highly-prestigious public responsabilities —such as lawyers, notaries, and consultants— in this Alicante town. In the present paper we have tried to analyze the aforesaid letters with the aim of showing the complexity of this type of discourse, since, although they are written following a common general structure it is without linguistically nor diplomatically sistematically repeated pattern. Our Christmas cards fall under the influence of polite conventions, which makes obligation and affection formulae appear, providing a rich variety derived from its use, and revealing, in turn, the baroque spirit of this age.

We have consulted different documental collections, as well as the Libro del Repartimiento of Murcia and Orihuela.
Las siglas como procedimento lexicogenésico
Authors: Rodríguez González Félix
Published: April 2016

The aim of this article is to underline the role acronyms play as a modern and productive word-formation method in contemporary Spanish. Two major aspects are broadly analysed. First, the process of siglación or acronymy, by which initials may become acronyms and be fully lexicalized. In this respect, the study proposes for Spanish such terms as abreviatura, literación and acrónimo to define the morpho-phonological, graphemic and semantic stages of this process which are taken as a reflection of the gradual lexicalization of the acronymic lexeme. Second, particular mention is made of two word-making devices -compounding (and blending) and derivation— which are the best proof of the vitality and the degree of penetration of this linguistic phenomenon.
A propósito de la sintagmática saussureana
Authors: Ramón Trives Estanislao
Published: April 2016

Our discussion has dealt with the syntagmatic or verbal interrelations in discourse, whose positions, in my opinion, are relevant to the determination of the interrelationship, beyond the explicit interrelations morpheme, conjunctions, disjunctions and so on, or implicit one as 0 interrelations morpheme. The cognitive basis of these processes appears clearly through the using of the semiotic square in all the cases of the interrelationship in the text. Consequently it may be proved, according to F. de Saussure, that the syntagmatic or verbal interrelations include the syntax but not inversely.
Dialectología tradicional, sociolingüística laboviana y geolingüística trudgilliana: tres aproximaciones al estudio de la variación
Authors: Hernández Campoy Juan Manuel
Published: April 2016

Traditional Dialectology, Labovian Sociolinguistics and Trudgillian Geolinguistics represent in themselves three different approaches to the same concern: variation phenomena and linguistic change. Although sometimes the renewing impetus of some scholars provoked extremely discrediting positions against some linguistic studies from the past—particularly against those related to dialectological work—, in a new era of co-operation, integration and synthesis in the field as the one that dominates the studies in Language and Society nowadays, these three approaches to 'variationism' can be considered as complementary, regardless of the extent of sophistication they enjoy or might have enjoyed. The aim of this paper is to provide a general view of Traditional Dialectology, Labovian Sociolinguistics and Trudgillian Geolinguistics, discussing the nature of their relationships.
Comportamiento discursivo de "bueno", "bien", "pues bien"
Authors: Fuentes Rodríguez Catalina
Published: April 2016

Bien, bueno and pues bien are three connective devices lexically related. Some of their uses are common for the three of them, particularly the conclusive one. However, being explanatory of the same sort is not common for these devices. Furthermore they differ both about the possibility of being used as expletive or discourse triggers (specifically in answers) and about the distinct semantic contents they add when linking.
Adolescencia, variación lingüística, competencia metacomunicativa y enseñanza de la lengua
Authors: Bañón Hernández Antonio Miguel
Published: April 2016

What we have aimed in the first part of the present paper is to carry out an analysis of some value judgement processes of linguistic variation from the evidence of two hundred and thirty-four Murcian adolescents registered in Compulsary Secondary Education Courses (ESO). Thus, we will both with the asumption of, adscription, adequacy, and adhesion to semio-linguistic habits —processes all related with maintenance attitudes—, and with the insiders' and outsiders' adversion to, accommodation to, and assimilation of semio-linguistic habits -processes all, on the other hand, following transformation attitudes. In the second part we will allude to some issues related with language teaching to nonstandard speakers or to non-standard-speaking communities.
De la teoría a la práctica lexicográfica: el «Nuevo diccionario de la lengua castellana» de Vicente Salvá
Authors: Azorín Fernández Dolores , Baquero Mesa Rosario
Published: April 2016

The principal aim of this article is to evaluate the original contribution of Vicente Salvá towards monolingual lexicography of Spanish language in nineteenth century. In order to achieve this objective, we start from the context in which this author is inscribed, contrasting his labour with that developed by the other lexicographs of his generation and, very especially, with the work of the Spanish Royal Academy whose Dictionary (DRAE, 1843) Salvá tried to improve with remarkable success, in our opinion.
Fundamentos de exégesis lingüística
Authors: Crespillo Bellido Manuel

During the second modernity the exegeses constitute the only possible way of bringing up to date the old romantic idea of the philology of the spirit, philology ruled by the ideal of the Absolute and conceived as an over valuation of the subject, which implies to concede the primacy to the role of the language subject of art rather than to the language object of the great social mass.
Para una caracterización tipológico-retórica del texto verbal publicitario
Authors: Lineros Quintero Rocío
Published: April 2016

This study aims at a detailed analysis of the structures and functions of texts; with this purpose, a particular discursive-textual type has been used, namely, Publicity and, with it, the publicity text, that is, the advertisement. Therefore, the author's work has been to show, and at the same time to advocate for, the need of a SCIENCE OF THE TEXT. The function of this new Science concerns the description and explanation of the internal and external relations of the different aspects of the forms of communication and the uses of a language; and in this process, it acquires a specific condition: it becomes a cross-sectional science, cutting across several disciplines. This has led us to an interdisciplinary approach in our analysis of the publicity verbal text, taking into account its relation to Rhetoric, to Grammar and to Linguistics.

The aim of this works is to explain the reason of this change and the role which the problem of lexical polisemy plays in the revised version of the semantics of prototypes.
Voces de creación metafórica sobre el maíz y el trigo en el Atlas lingüístico y etnográfico de Aragón, Navarra y Rioja
Authors: Fuster Berenguer María Trinidad
Published: April 2016

According to the Dictionary of the Academy, metaphor is defined as 'a trope that results from the transfer of the exact meaning of a word to a figurative meaning through a tacit comparison'. One meaning can produce new senses that sometimes do not emerge from the initial idea but rather from a metaphor: for example, pelo (hair) for 'corn silk' (ALEANR, I, 107), bigote (moustache) for 'corn silk' (ALEANR, I, 107), corazón (heart) for 'pit, stone' (ALEANR, I, 111), etc. In this paper we point out some terms that have acquired meaning through metaphor. All of these terms can be found in the Atlas Lingüístico y Etnográfico de Aragón, Navarra y Rioja (The Linguistic and Ethnographic Alias of Aragon, Navarra, and Rioja) and refer to corn or wheat.
Los conectores pragmáticos como índices de modalidad en español actual
Authors: Arce Castillo Ángela
Published: April 2016

The present proyect studies those structures of the Spanish Language, that are not only linking elements in the speech, but also modalizers. They reflect their modal value and allow us to infer the type of relation between the speakers from the attitude they express when emitting the speech. We are talking about elements such as: really, in fact, exactly, precisely, of course, just so, sure enough, by the way, at least, in fact... Being aware of the problems that come across with this study of modality, that is to say the attitude of the speaker with the listener and the speech. The molalizer plays its role, as part of the different modalities of the speech (indicates objectivity), as well as the modalities of the way to perform the speech (shows subjectivity). Therefore, the linguistic forms we are going to be dealing with, express in one way or another, the opinion or intention of the speaker in relation with what he/she is speaking and/or his/her relation with the listener. Moreover, the units we are going to study, are frecuently used in the conversation, however, their status in the different grammars is not well defined, there are formulas that we use to link the different parts of the speech. Besides that, all those formulas have certain modal value. Furthermore, for the purpose of this study, a written corpus has been taken. That is the Spanish novel Caperucita en Manhattan by Carmen Martín Gaite. This novel has been chosen due to the fact that it is mainly written in dialogue and the language used is colloquial.
Consideraciones sobre la formación de palabras en español
Authors: García Platero Juan Manuel
Published: April 2016

When analysing word formation processes, it should be born in mind that they are one of the central aspects of the energeia or potentiality of language. For this reason, corpus-based analyses are needed to reach conclusive results. The detailed observation of the empirical data leads to the concept of a gradient or cline of word formation processes more than to clear-cut categories. Thus, affixational and compositional neological processes should be thought of as part of a continuum rather than separate entities.
Nuevos ejemplos de lenguas inventadas en algunas canciones de Navidad (siglos XVII y XVIII)
Authors: Puche Lorenzo Miguel Ángel
Published: April 2016

In this paper we analyse the invented languages that appear in several Christmas carols from the XVII and XVIII centuries. We provide so a series of data that confirm the theories until now elaborated and based principally on dramatic works of the Golden Ages, as well as novel data. We will be able to verify that language is an indispensable element to fix the diatopic and diastratic origin of interlocutors, something very useful to prepare the way for their sociolinguistic study.
Polifonía del signo en Saussure: los Anagramas y el Curso de lingüística general
Authors: Rodríguez Ferrándiz Raúl
Published: April 2016

Ferdinand de Saussure dedicated a three year period to the study of what he called «anagrams in Indoeuropean poetry». After detailed analysis of several hundred poems, he discovered that in classical Latin, Greek, Vedic and even Germanic verse, the poets had intentionally given their text a double reading: the verse sounds, in addition to being linearly employed in the service of higher, grammatical units, appeared to be invested with their own semantic task, to give emphasis to the names of the central characters featured in the plot of the poem. This paper pretends to show the relationship between the ideas presented in Saussure's Anagram Notebooks and those found in his contemporary lessons on General Linguistics, such as sign linearity and linguistic relevance of syntagmatic composition. The links demonstrate the coherence of his thought and his wide philological interests, which contradicts the generally held belief that Saussure's anagram studies represent nothing more than a diversion of no real significance, developed in intellectual isolation from his true academic pursuits.
El tratamiento de las unidades fraseológicas en la lexicografía bilingüe
Authors: Santamaría Pérez María Isabel
Published: April 2016

This study aims lo determine the treatment of the multiword lexical units in a bilingual Catalan-Spanish lexicography. The first part of this essay pays attention to the situation of nowadays' phraseology, observing both its theorical aspect and its usage in other disciplines such as the lexicography. The second part centers on the study of the fixed word combinations which appear in Catalan-Spanish dictionaries, especially those thought to be used in schools in order to find out the reasons why they were chosen if they appear in the macro o microestructure and if they use any kind of grammatical classification. Moreover we will focus over attention on the equivalences in the target language.
La duración consonántica en castellano
Authors: Barrio Estévez Laura del , Tornel Castells Sergio
Published: April 2016

This paper presents the results of an experimental analysis of the duration of Spanish consonants. The influence of three different factors—stress, location on the syllable, and pause vicinity— on the duration of consonants in reading text has been studied. Phonetic context and speech rate have also been controlled. The obtained results seem to indicate that the vicinity of a pause and the location of the consonant in the syllable have a systematic effect on all the consonants, while the stress only affects the duration of a reduced set of voiced allophones ([1], [r] and [n]). Some general conclusions about the mean duration of each consonant, and about the relationship between duration and voicing, manner and place of articulation, have also been established.
Orden y caos en la traducción creativa (aspectos de coherencia textual)
Authors: Gómez Sánchez Juan Pedro
Published: April 2016

The main aim of the present article is to approach the problems of stability, prototypicality, reorganization and virtuous self-organization in the text of creative translation from a semantic-topological view. The structural shape of texture relationships between the source language text and the target language text shows a chain of regulating mechanisms apart from the context. Finally, the topological analysis of the translation of Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky into Spanish has allowed us to have a geometric vision of the underlying morphological stability and its sense attractors.
Actitudes sociolingüísticas: México y España
Authors: Lope Blanch Juan Manuel
Published: April 2016

In order to preserve the basic unity of a language like Spanish, which is spoken in 20 countries, all the speakers must adopt a respectful and careful attitude when they use it orally. In the area of phonetics, educated Spanish speakers, even those who study the language, express themselves in a somewhat careless way and what is most surprising is that such negligence is accepted in Spain by the educated linguistic norm.
Papeles semánticos, preposiciones y objetos preposicionales

In this work, I have examined some interpretations of the relational meaning of several oblique arguments. I have pointed out some discrepancies in the interpretations of these complements. Finally, I have commented on some problemational questions about semantic roles and I have remarked that these questions could be involved in the mentioned discrepancies.
¿Es "nosotros" el plural de "yo"?
Authors: Almela Pérez Ramón
Published: April 2016

The problem I wish to examine proposes both a conflict and certain confluence. On one hand, the conflict which exists between the semantic and formal arguments which are put forward in grammatical theories. On the other hand, the confluence which can be observed within morphemes referring to person and number: if nosotros is not the plural of yo, of which form is it plural?, is it perhaps a fourth person?, isn't it, probably a further instance of a suppletion plural form? If we deny that nosotros is not plural of yo, wouldn't it be an example of epistemic reductionism?.
Estructuras nominales, verbales y oracionales del texto legal
Authors: Provencio Garrigós Herminia
Published: April 2016

This paper presents a proposal for the formalization of nominal and verbal structures and the syntax of legal texts, focusing on the Spanish Constitution and the Autonomic Statute of the Region of Murcia. The theoretical basis is drawn from considering the Spanish Constitution as the thematic and verbal paradigm of the Statute, in both its discursive and textual design. This design is influenced by law topics, inherent to both texts, which show similar morphosyntactic structures and share the same high level of lexicalization.
El afijo aplicativo -i- del suahelí y sus repercusiones teóricas para la gramática funcional
Authors: Salazar García Ventura
Published: April 2016

The present paper discusses how the Simon C. Dik's Functional Grammar (FG) should account for the applicative affix -i- in Swahili verbs. In order to do so, it first summarizes the theory of syntactic function assignment within the framework of FG; and it also shows FG's main differences with the traditional and structural approaches. According lo Dik, the applicative affix -i- expresses the object assignment to a beneficiary term. Nevertheless, there are some empirical difficulties against this hypothesis. It is therefore suggested the possibility of considering the affix -i- not as a consequence of a syntactic function assignment, but as a synchronically productive lexical procedure which builds up derived verbal predicates.
Generación automática de respuestas en análisis morfológico
Authors: Santana Suárez Octavio , Pérez Aguiar José Rafael , Losada García Luis Javier
Published: April 2016

This paper is concerned with the problem of obtaining a procedure for the automatic generation of texts, inside a defined domain. In the case of study the domain is composed of sentences which result from a Spanish morphological analysis. One important difficulty in order to develop the automatic generation of texts system is to prepare the input data. In the present work the domain is a group of simple results of morphological analysis in natural language. Input data redundancy has been eliminated from such group, the essential information has been extracted and the logical structure has been obtained. The possibility to say the same in different ways forces to select the lexicon, to observe the context and to reinforce the control by means of selection criteria with the aim of assuring that the obtained text is correct and formal, objective and concise. The main contribution of this work consists in converting the logical structure into a sentence which represente the information in a cohesive, coherent, comprehensible way and with certain style.
Sociolingüística en el ALEA: variable generacional y cambio lingüístico
Authors: Morillo-Velarde Pérez Ramón
Published: April 2016

This paper aims at reviewing the information of sociolinguistic nature contained within the synthetic maps of the Atlas Lingüístico y Etnográfico de Andalucía, ALEA, volume VI (atlas concerned with the linguistic and ethnographic information found in the region of Andalusia). After establishing a more or less general framework about the different sociolinguistic variables that can be observed in these maps, it concentrates upon the specific variable dealing with changes related to generations. This task will be carried out in order to determine if, together with the application of the apparent time hypothesis, predictions drawn about linguistic changes in the Andalusian language could be fulfilled or not once fifty years in real time have passed. Thus, we try to evaluate that methodology as a procedure to predict the orientation of linguistic changes. The result obliges oneself to look at what the text calls apparent time weaken hypothesis, so that this mechanism only works for certain kind of linguistic change and just when its sense coincides with the marked by the vector of the resulting from such changes.
Procedimientos de creación léxica en el lenguaje juvenil universitario
Authors: Marimón Llorca Carmen , Santamaría Pérez María Isabel
Published: April 2016

The aim of this work is to study the way universitaries students adapt language to their specifical needs. We are specially interested in the capacity of this group to create new words and renew vocabulary and expresions. How universitary people uses morphological basic mecanisms as well as phraseology are the main goals of our study. The study is based upon the observation of a real oral corpus collected for a group of researches from the University of Alicante. We assume that young people's language is an important source of lexical creation and we'll try to show till which point this asumption is real.
Normalización del euskera y educación bilingüe
Authors: Etxebarria Arostegui Maitena
Published: April 2016

The present article deals with some sociopolitical aspects completely necessary to understand the current situation of Basque language. After introducing some general aspects, conditions and development of the process of linguistic standardization are taken into account in the Basque territories (Euskal Herria), as well as the knowledge and use of the language. Later on, the article centres on the presence of Basque language in teaching levels, above all in bilingual teaching models. The subsequent data allow us to show an analysis and evaluation of the linguistic policy followed throughout the last years, and its consequences on the use of language by the schooling population.
El Cancionero de Unamuno: aproximación desde la semántica topológica
Authors: Pérez Herranz Fernando Miguel , López Cruces Antonio José
Published: April 2016

For some time, we have been applying the Semantic Topologic, basing ourselves in the applications to Linguistics with the singularity topological theory approach (in the sense of Thom, Petitot, Wildgen, Brandt...). Untill now, we have been using not too extense poetry. Nevertheless we have dared now to analyse a much greater piece of work: the Unamuno’s Cancionero. We have underlined the verbs — which have the central place in our analysis—, and we have established the hierarchical relationship between them in each poem, taking as starting point the central semantic nucleus offered to us by the singularity topological classification.
El lexicón no nativo y las reglas de la gramática
Authors: Baralo Ottonello Marta
Published: April 2016

Este trabajo es un análisis de las relaciones existentes entre la información del lexicón mental y los principios formales del sistema lingüístico, es decir, de la estrecha relación que existe entre el saber y usar vocabulario y el saber construir las oraciones en las que aparecen esas palabras del vocabulario, además del saber construir y procesar palabras nuevas, que no se conocían previamente. El objetivo es acercar los resultados de las investigaciones de la lingüística aplicada a la adquisición de este aspecto de la competencia lingüística, a los profesionales de la enseñanza del español como lengua extranjera (E/LE), con la seguridad de que les proporcionará nuevos instrumentos de reflexión para su acción didáctica o formadora. Nos basamos en la hipótesis de que la organización del lexicón mental es cualitativamente semejante en lengua materna (LM) y en lengua extranjera (LE) en cuanto a su organización y funcionamiento. Dentro de este marco, analizamos algunos casos de selección léxica y proyección sintáctica, desde la perspectiva de las necesidades del español no nativo. Terminamos con algunas implicaciones didácticas que podrían ser útiles para el profesor de E/LE.
Parámetros del orden de palabras y transferencia: factores internos de la adquisición del alemán como lengua extranjera
Authors: Ehlers Christoph
Published: April 2016

Tanto en el marco de la teoría de los principios y parámetros (Chomsky, 1981) como en el contexto de los estudios funcionalistas (Pienemann, 1989), el papel de la transferencia o influencia interlingüística en la adquisición de segundas lenguas se ha librado ya tiempos ha del sambenito conductista. Este artículo cotejará las distintas explicaciones del fenómeno del conocimiento previo en la interlengua de los aprendientes españoles del alemán, apoyándose en parte en datos obtenidos en un estudio propio.
La concordancia en la interlengua de los aprendices de español como lengua extranjera
Authors: Pastor Cesteros Susana
Published: April 2016

En el presente artículo mostramos los resultados de un estudio con aprendices de español como segunda lengua, mediante el que hemos intentado arrojar luz sobre el proceso de adquisición de la concordancia en su interlengua. Para ello, hemos partido de los diferentes tipos de concordancia para detectar hasta qué punto constituyen áreas de dificultad para tales aprendices, en función de los respectivos niveles de competencia. Hemos intentado concretar qué errores de concordancia desaparecen y cuáles continúan a medida que avanza el proceso de aprendizaje, lo que puede contribuir a delimitar el orden de adquisición de la concordancia en aprendices de E/LE.
La opacidad sintáctica de las palabras derivadas: una nueva perspectiva
Authors: Felíu Arquiola Elena
Published: April 2016

In this paper we show that the Lexical Integrity Hypothesis (Chomsky, 1970) can be interpreted in two opposite ways. One of these interpretations, the most frequent one in the literature, bans the access of syntax to the internal structure of complex words. On the other hand, the second interpretation bans the syntactic relevance of the semantic information contained in the base of the derived word. The main objective of this paper is to show that this second interpretation of the Lexical Integrity Hypothesis is mistaken. In order to do so, we present three studies focused on three different Spanish word-formation processes, in which the semantic properties of the bases determine the syntactic behaviour of the complex lexical items. In the light of these studies, we claim that words derived by suffixation can be considered cases of “nuclearity paradoxes”, in the sense that in this type of complex words the categorial nucleus and the semantic one do not coincide in the same constituent.
Dialectometría y léxico en las hablas de Teruel
Authors: Aliaga Jiménez José Luis
Published: April 2016

The present paper approaches the dialectometric study of the linguistic varieties of Teruel based on the data provided by the Atlas Lingüístico Etnográfico de Aragón, Navarra y Rioja (1979-1983). This work presents a double interest. On the one hand, it attacks the analysis of a linguistic environment rarely analyzed so far as an autonomous form, and on the other, it fully makes use of the quantitative methods as focused on the dialectal analysis.
La nomenclatura de Ernesto Joseph Eder

Published: April 2016

Along this work present a few known nomenclature, the Ernesto Joseph Eder "Vocabulario de los nombres y verbos más usados y necessarios" included in his bilingual grammar, Florilegio español y alemán y gramática de la lengua alemana para los españoles, y española para los alemanes [...] from 1714. The article study his relation with Juan Ángel de Zumarán's nomenclature and place the "Vocabulario" between the first steps on bilingual lexicography with German and Spanish.
Neologismos incorporados por Salvá en el Nuevo diccionario de la lengua castellana
Authors: Azorín Fernández Dolores
Published: April 2016

This paper constitutes an attempt to establish the criteria used by the most important monolingual dictionaries of Spanish language, published in the nineteenth century, in order to introduce neologisms. For achieve this objective, I start from the collection of neologisms compiled by V. Salvá in his Nuevo Diccionario de la Lengua Castellana (1846), contrasting his labour whit that developed by the others lexicographers of this period and, very specially, with the different issues of the DRAE in the nineteenth century.
Aproximación a la variabilidad fraseológica de las lenguas alemana, inglesa y española
Authors: Corpas Pastor Gloria  , Mena Martínez Florentina
Published: April 2016

Phraseological units, traditionally described by means of different properties, such as idiomaticity, fixedness and non-compositionality, are also subject to variation. Far from coming into conflict with the key phraseological characteristic (fixedness), variation reinforces its identity through various categories consistent across different phraseological types, different registers and different languages. This paper sets out to find a definition of phraseological variation and to establish a general framework of this phenomenon. We distinguish two main categories: variants and modifications and Ilustrate them with German, English and Spanish examples.
Dinamismo construccional en el lenguaje infantil y teoría lingüística
Authors: Fernández Pérez Milagros
Published: April 2016

The development of child language shows particular features which do not fit in adult language patterns. The idiosyncrasy of child language in its different stages has not always been paid attention to. Most of the theories approach child language as though it was a fully conformed system. There are, however, several approaches which study child language as a particular code, focusing its particular emergency.
El modelo delante de, cerca de en la tradición gramatical española
Authors: Gómez Asencio José Jesús
Published: April 2016

Some features, which, in the author's mind, are constant in the so called "traditional" model of grammar analysis developed in the West before approximately 1830 are presented here. It is insinuated how those theoretical principles hindered, in general, the perception of the "unitary sets" of words and, concretely, of those which could be called "prepositional compounds". It is offered a relatively detailed analysis of the treatments which, throughout the Spanish grammatical tradition (1492-1895), have been proposed for a certain type of "prepositional compound", Le., the one represented by the model NOMINAL ADVERB + DE (delante de, cerca de, encima de, ...): how it is analysed, which are its compounding elements, how are these categorised. It is outlined which may have been the categorical and epistemic sequence of such treatments.
