Beyond Bleeps and Bounds
Streaming platforms have transformed series distribution and accessibility, with Spanish-language shows gaining immense popularity, notably "La casa de papel" (Money Heist). This series features a diverse cast of characters whose linguistic diversity extends to the use of taboo language. Previous studies have shown that linguistic immersion, such as staying abroad, significantly impacts knowledge of this kind of language. This paper aims to explo…
Taboo effects at the syntactic level
This paper analyses the linguistic resources used by speakers to profile the participants in taboo actions, focusing on expressions for the concept abortar 'to abort' in Spanish sociolinguistic interviews. The tokens referring to the action are analysed in terms of linguistic features that affect agentivity at the level of verbs, subjects and objects. The combination of different linguistic features is classified in three levels of agentivity (pr…
Any #JesuisIraq planned
The stem #jesuis followed by a toponym (e.g. #jesuisParis) has proved to be very productive in the gathering of affective publics ( Papacharissi 2015 ) around causes of mourning, after terrorist attacks and other disasters. However, not all attacks have given rise to such massive affective use of #jesuis hashtags. Our goal is to examine how Twitter users claim similar displays of affect for these “other” places. We analyze 297 tweets in which the…
Quién atenúa y cuándo en español
o En este análisis, abordamos la atenuación en español desde la variación entre géneros discursivos orales (conversaciones, interacciones en clase, debates parlamentarios y entrevistas sociolingüísticas). Basándonos en el análisis de Briz (2007) de la atenuación en conversaciones informales y entrevistas, en la propuesta de Fraser (1990) y Blas Arroyo (2005) en cuanto al impacto del contrato conversacional en el carácter marcado o no de una estra…
From expressing solidarity to mocking on Twitter
In this article, we show how the hashtag#jesuisCharlie, created following the attack onCharlie Hebdo, gave rise to the use of many other hashtags starting with#jesuis, across languages. Through a corpus-based analysis, we show how the meaning of#jesuisbroadened from expressing condolence and support following terrorist attacks over expressing condolence for other (violent) deaths to a more general marker of solidarity and alignment. This broadeni…
Who said ‘Abortion’? Semantic Variation and Ideology in Spanish Newspapers' Online Discussions
In this paper, we defend the study of semantic variation from a cognitive sociolinguistics perspective. Through a case study on the semantic variation of ‘abortion’ in Spanish newspapers' comments, we investigate quantitatively the influence of the independent factors (‘source’, ‘date’, ‘ideology’, ‘gender’, ‘quote’) on conceptual onomasiological variation. The chi-square tests show that ‘ideology’ and ‘quote’ affect significantly the preference …
