2021
Health is a common issue for all human beings. As a consequence, everyone in the world has in some way to cope with the language of medicine. This is true now more than ever due to the global health crisis caused by the current COVID-19 pandemic, which has introduced a great amount of terms, previously mostly used by epidemiologists and statisticians, but which now have entered the daily lexicon of many languages. As the medium of international scientific communication, English is the language of worldwide information about the pandemic, and the main source of terms and expressions for other languages. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on English lexicon has been so deep that the Oxford E…
El léxico coloquial argentino en los “sketches” humorísticos
2017
En la lengua española encontramos una gran riqueza dialectológica y es, precisamente, esa variedad la que explica la existencia de identidades lingüísticas en cada una de las comunidades hispanas. Mediante el léxico coloquial, podemos observar uno de los ámbitos más diferenciales y, por lo tanto, identitarios en cada una de esas comunidades; de hecho, para este artículo se propone analizar, concretamente, el léxico coloquial argentino. Siguiendo esta búsqueda lingüística de lo propio, se ha trabajado sobre un contexto donde el registro sea actual, popular y coloquial, como es el caso del ámbito humorístico. De esta manera, nos proponemos en este trabajo encontrar aquellas voces propias del …

Szkic z dziejów leksykografii dwujęzycznej: Paweł Sobolewski i jego Słownik angielsko-polski… (1840)
2016
This article focuses on Paweł Sobolewski’s manuscript dictionary, Słownik angielsko- polski… (1840), which his biographers allege was lost during shipment from America to Europe. However, part of the manuscript embracing the alphabet range B‒E is held at the archive of the Polish Library in Paris, thus allowing the author to discuss facts and myths concerning the dictionary, and make an attempt at its assessment. Much attention is paid in the paper to Sobolewski’s biography, which may be illustrated and partly verified with the extant correspondence.
Estudio de las interjecciones en las comedias de Aristófanes
2000
El objetivo esencial de este libro consiste en proporcionar un estudio amplio, riguroso y filológico de las interjecciones propias de la Comedia aristofánica, intentando superar el único trabajo dedicado a esta cuestión hasta la fecha (Schinck, “De interiectionum epiphonematumque ui atque usu apud Aristophanem”, 1873), con la finalidad de profundizar en uno de los tantos aspectos relevantes de la lengua conversacional aristofánica. Todo esto se ha logrado, básicamente, enumerando las interjecciones y los pasajes en los que aparecen, traduciéndolos, comentándolos, ofreciendo nuestra interpretación, y procurando la suficiente información para que, en caso de no resultar satisfactoria la inter…
Aplicaciones lexicográficas de un corpus de discurso turístico: contextos de uso y definiciones
2012
En este artículo se propone, como punto de partida, la elaboración de un corpus de discurso turístico, incluido en una base de datos informática diseñada para tal efecto. En una segunda etapa, se analiza, cómo se contextualizan y usan los términos relativos a la tipología de habitaciones en las páginas web de promoción de hoteles, y si se ajustan o no a la definición que de ellos se ofrece en normativas y diccionarios. Esta metodología de trabajo permitirá, entre otros, diseñar futuros glosarios de promoción hotelera que recojan en las definiciones de los términos todos los matices de significado y notas de uso que sean útiles y adecuadas a los posibles destinatarios del glosario.
