This thoroughly updated second edition provides a clear and
comprehensive overview of sociolinguistics and the pragmatics of
oral communication in Spanish. While maintaining the same structure
as the first edition, it includes revised "Ejercicios de reflexion"
and new comprehension checks at the end of each chapter, along with
numerous bibliographic references throughout, enhancing its use as
a classroom text. Among the significant revisions are new sections
on corpus linguistics and on statistical modeling programs for
studying linguistic variables, an expanded chapter on the study of
linguistic attitudes with special attention to Spanish in the
United States, greater attention to the relation of pragmatics to
sociolinguistics, including coverage of verbal politeness and forms
of address, and updated information on Spanglish and on the
teaching of Spanish as a heritage language.
