Linguistic Transfer vs. Interference
Spanish and Basque are two languages in contact in the Basque Country, linguistically influencing each other. Probably due to Basque not producing gender agreement (GA), nonstandard gender agreement (N‐SGA) production is found in the Spanish spoken in the Basque Country (BAC Spanish). Through the analysis of 73 sociolinguistic interviews in BAC Spanish, the impact of social factors and linguistic attitudes is explored as predictors of N‐SGA produ…
Grammatical Innovation in Western Basque Varieties
Aims and objectives: This study investigates a recent grammatical innovation in Western Basque: the emergence of a conditional grammatical gender agreement (GGA) system. While Basque is traditionally classified as morphologically genderless, this research examines how intense, long-term contact with Spanish has led to adjectival gender distinctions, shifting the language toward a new typological category. Methodology: The research utilizes a tria…
Actitudes lingüísticas hacia el voseo y el tuteo en el español de Medellín y Santiago
Tanto en el español de Medellín como en el de Santiago, las formas de tratamiento voseantes y tuteantes reflejan una estratificación sociolingüística influenciada por factores como el estatus social y el género. Para investigar qué rasgos sociales están asociados con estas variantes y determinar si estas asociaciones son consistentes en términos de procesamiento y relevancia en ambas ciudades, se llevó a cabo un experimento con 100 participantes …
“Fallo garrafal y común entre vascoparlantes
Non-standard gender agreement (N-SGA) is one of the linguistic features resulting from contact between Basque and Spanish in the Spanish spoken in the Basque Autonomous Community (BAC Spanish). The present study triangulates data from 73 participants (age range: 19–90), who completed three tasks: an exaggerated imitation task, a modified matched-guise task, and explicit questions regarding N-SGA in BAC Spanish. Statistical and thematic analyses r…
Cross-regional comparison of attitudes and perceptions towards the visual linguistic landscape
‘Aquí toman mucho sopa’
The language contact between Basque and Spanish in the Basque Autonomous Community (BAC) gives rise to the production of specific linguistic features such as non-standard gender agreement (N-SGA). N-SGA in BAC Spanish has been traditionally attributed to elder Basque native speakers without much access to education, but this affirmation is not based on any empirical study. In addition, although several scholars have explored N-SGA in other langua…
The Impact of the Myths about Spanish and its Speakers in the US Population
Spanish is the second most spoken language in the US and one of the attacked and minoritized languages in the territory. To investigate the presence of the myths regarding Spanish and its speakers in the US, 210 participants were recruited to express their (dis)agreement with 8 myths in a 6-point Likert scale. The results indicate a high tendency for myth rejection regardless of their (i) self-reported race/ ethnicity, (ii) level of education, an…
Linguistic landscape in a rural Basque area
Basque is one of the official languages spoken in the Basque Country and although it is usually considered the minoritised language, its situation might be different in rural areas. The presence of Basque and Spanish has been previously reported in urban areas [Cenoz, J., & Gorter, D. (2006). Linguistic landscape and minority languages. International Journal of Multilingualism, 3(1), 67–80. https://doi.org/10.1080/14790710608668386], but their pr…
Study Abroad and Student Decision Making in Times of Covid
The impacts of Covid-19 on Study abroad (SA) are deep and widespread and potentially affect the factors that guide US undergraduate students’ choices as they relate to SA. To investigate them, the present study relies on the MSA (Motivation to SA questionnaire: Anderson & Lawton, 2015) and adds two new groups of factors: language learning and health. To observe changes in the relative weight of factors before and during the pandemic, responses to…
La comparación de los pronombres de segunda persona del singular en el español peninsular y en el euskera
Este trabajo toma los pronombres de segunda persona del singular —Pro2s— del español centro-norteño —tú y usted— y del euskera —hi y zu— como base, y con ello revisa estudios empíricos ya publicados sobre el español peninsular (Pedroviejo Esteruelas, 2006; Sampedro Mella, 2016; Sanromán Vilas, 2010). Por su parte, los datos para el euskera se basan en el análisis de 540 conversaciones de la serie Goenkale. Este estudio concluye que los Pro2s no s…
