Lexical Borrowing and Deborrowing in Spanish in New York City
provides a sociodemographic portrait of lexical borrowing in
Spanish in New York City. The volume offers new and important
insights into research on lexical borrowing. In particular, it
presents empirical data obtained through quantitative analysis to
answer the question of who is most likely to use English lexical
borrowings while speaking Spanish, to address the impact that
English has on Spanish as spoken in the city and to identify the
social factors that contribute to language change. The book also
provides an empirical, corpus-based-approach to distinguishing
between borrowing and other contact phenomena, such as
codeswitching, which will be of interest to scholars of language
contact and bilingualism.
