Short description:
Variación y cambio en el español de Cuba / LAURENCIO TACORONTE, Ariel. - (2015), pp. 1-320.
abstract:
The aim of this work is to deal with the topic of variation and change in Cuban Spanish, with a special emphasis on the Havana variety, one of the most innovative and recognizable within the island’s linguistic landscape.
The work is divided into three sections: phonetics and phonology, lexis and semantics, morphology and syntax. The cases described are illustrated with entries taken from a lexico¬graphical work of personal authorship, or likewise with usage examples mainly taken from the Reference Corpus of Contemporary Spanish (CREA).
On the basis of the analysis of the collected data, this paper examines the state of variability and balance inherent to the system, as well as changes which have already taken place in it, in order to deepen in the understanding of the mechanisms that shape this language variety.
