This paper is part of the research project «Fictional orality» in the translation of short stories by Carmen Lyra, registered at the Institute of Linguistic Research of the University of Costa Rica under the number 745-C1-002. It analyzes the Spanish to English translation of components with a semantic function as part of the features of «fictional orality» in Tales from my Aunt Panchita by the Costa Rican writer Carmen Lyra. In particular, the colloquial lexicon, and the semantic relations of similarity are traced. To do so, first, we systematized the results related to translation techniques, methods, and norms; afterwards, we contrasted them with the tendencies identified for the pragmatic field and for phraseological units, according to previous research part of this project; and, finally, we discussed the most representative examples of semantic or stylistic divergence between the source text and its English counterpart.

This paper analyzes the dialectal variation in the Wichi/Weenhayek language (Mataguayan). On the one hand, we distinguish differences that result from phonological and morphological variations. The phonological variation impacts on the phonemic representation or pronunciation of the lexical items, and the morphological variation impacts on the morphological configuration of the words (complex words). On the other hand, we distinguish differences that have exclusively to do with the lexicon, that is, the alternate words for the same concept distributed in different geographical areas. In addition, we analyze the historical variation of the words for 'water', since it gives us hints for the understanding of lexical change and diffusion through the Wichi/Weenhayk territory. The data analyzed in this study come from primary sources (a bilingual Wichi/Weenhayek-Spanish dictionary created collectively together with Wichi native speakers from different geographical areas) and from secondary sources (descriptive grammars and vocabularies). The results of this study contribute new elements to the division into two dialectal groups, Pilcomayeño and Bermejeño, identified previously on the basis of phonological and morphological features, which are speculated as having the longest time of divergence. At the same time, it opens new questions about the behavior of the lexicon and the setting of the two dialectal groups in relation to the historical and social nets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims -- taking as a starting point the lexical family derived from ἄγγελοϛ -- to show what concept of news (bad or good) had the members of the societies represented in Homer, tragedy, aristophanic comedy, the texts of historians and oratory. The analysis of the lexicon reflects that, although the vast majority of the news items are negative, there is no derivative of ἄγγελοϛ to designate the bad news. However, there is one for the good news: γγέλιου. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper intends to make a comparative study of the vocabulary related to the semantic field of the sense of vision in Euripides' Medea and in Seneca's Medea. We consider that this issue is of a prominent relevance in both tragedies, due to the high frequency of the explicit mention of these words. The aim is to analyze comparatively which implications these terms have in both plays, in order to examine to what extent they can provide a key for reading each of them. The hypothesis is that the vocabulary related to the sense of vision has a different dramatic function in these tragedies. Specifically, this implies a distinct configuration of the main character as a tragic character, and this may as well shed light on the global understanding of these plays. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a reflection on the (internal and external) lexical dynamism, including social networks, in order to discuss its contributions to Lexicography, as the lexicon of a language system is supported by its constant evolution. To meet this purpose, theoretical postulations from Lexicography and Semantics are introduced, as well as contributions from Pragmatics and Terminography. These are used to support discussions based on some lexical items found in the most updated dictionaries of Brazilian Portuguese language, such as Ferreira (2010) and Houaiss (2009); of Italian language, as Zingarelli (2016); and of English language, as Oxford (2015, 2016). New entries and new meanings found in these lexicographical works are discussed in terms of the influence of media and social networks. Their inclusion into the Brazilian, Italian and English linguistic systems are analyzed through examples of some lexemes, whose tendency is the increase of the lexical flow. The advance of technology was found to contribute to the exponential increase of the lexicon, particularly through social networks, which connect, at the same time, a wide range of native speakers and foreign users to the same environment. Lexicography could consider this recent technological reality in order to register these lexical items in the dictionary as they are created and disseminated; obviously, they would be subjected to inclusion criteria justified theoretically.

The aim of this paper is to compile and analyse the most frequent anglicisms in the lexicon used in sports activities offered by Spanish gyms. This domain remains unexplored in the research of the phenomenon of anglicisms in the Spanish language, since the published literature has focused so far on the lexicon of other sports such as football (Fernández 1971; Alonso 1996; Rodríguez González 2012). We have studied a sample of 268 anglicisms taken from the brochures and websites of 15 gyms. Our analysis is not only quantitative but also describes different pragmatic functions of the anglicisms found in the data. This allows us to draw significant conclusions about the evolution of anglicisms as a sociolinguistic and cultural phenomenon in Spanish. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, I will make an approximation to the presence of words that come from the English language studying the Extremenian town of Mérida (Badajoz). To do this, from the implementation of the questionnaire for the study of the educated norm (Lope Blanch, 1972) and using as lexical base semantic fields of "the clothes", "the social life and entertainment" and the concepts of the theatre, the press, the film and the television (I have included also a subject area of internet), I will make a quantitative and qualitative analysis of a corpus composed of 25000 words. In the corpus, I include the use of foreign voices and also the presence of Spanish versions to describe some terms of English origin. With this research, I intend to observe the spread of anglicisms in the locality and I want to also check how semantic fields are foreign terms and why the presence of these voices in the current spanish.

Considering the definition of americanismo proposed by Campany (2007) and the concept dynamics found in Ramírez Luengo (2012), this paper states that process changes influencing on Peninsular Spanish often cause the conditions for americanisms, especially, semantic americanisms. This case is rather particular due to the fact that none of the Spanish varieties spoken in the Americas has any influence on this word formation or semantic change. In order to show this, a diachronic analysis on the Spanish noun and adjective puto (meaning homosexual) was made. It was found that the loss of meaning in the 18th century Spain gives its current shape of americanism. Apart from the example considered for the study, the conclusion is that diachronic analysis of americanisms is a complex process that requires more attention, so that a deeper and more rigorous approach to the history of Spanish language in the Americas is required.

This paper presents a first description of 18th century Eastern Bolivian lexicon, based on Seoane de los Santos' Práctico Diario. It is possible to obtain some relevant conclusions from this study, such as the use of some bolivianisms already in this moment, the abundance of Portuguese words, or the lexical coincidence of this region with the Platense area.
