Resumen: En este artículo se trabaja sobre un corpus de habla de la provincia de Corrientes con conversaciones acerca de temas de interés antropológico o sociológico. Dentro de él aparecen espontaneamente las construcciones analizadas en este trabajo. Se trata del sistema sintáctico-semántico formado por varias estructuras vinculables por relaciones de paráfrasis.

Resumen: Durante el verano de 1987, los autores recorrieron la República de Panamá, haciendo las encuestas previstas para el 'Atlas Lingüístico de Hispanoamérica'. Se aplicó el 'Cuestionario' que, para la recogida de los materiales de esta obra, redactaron Manuel Alvar y Antonio Quilis. En este trabajo se pretende dar cuenta de los hechos más destacados que se han encontrado y que, normalmente, no habían sido señalados para todo el territorio. La bibliografía sobre el español de Panamá es escasa y, por otro lado, muy desigual : desde valiosos títulos hasta monografías que carecen del más mínimo rigor científico. En este estudio, se citan sólo aquéllos trabajos que contienen alguna aportación para el conocimiento del tema abordado.

Resumen: Genre studies in english for academic purposes aims at describing the variations of english academic discourse across various disciplines such as medicine, anthropology, economics, linguistics, computer science, or chemistry. The book also takes into account generic variations of academic written and spoken language.

Resumen: El trabajo que aquí se ofrece parte de la lengua oral grabada y recogida para el estudio del habla culta de San Juan de Puerto Rico. La investigación, por lo tanto, se inscribe dentro del 'Proyecto de estudio del español hablado en las principales ciudades del mundo hispánico', y es -hasta donde se tiene noticia- no sólo el único estudio fonológico-acústico de vocales realizado sobre estos materiales, sino el primer análisis riguroso que se lleva a cabo, en español, a partir de una muestra tan amplia de lengua oral. Las limitaciones impuestas por el mismo corpus, en cuanto a la imposibilidad de obtener todas las realizaciones necesarias, podrán subsanarse, en su día, con los análisis que han iniciado los autores sobre las encuestas recogidas para el 'Atlas Lingüístico de las Antillas', donde sí aparecen todos los contornos fonéticos necesarios.

Resumen: This volume presents fifteen original research papers by renowned specialists in their respective fields. A variety of research traditions are included, such as dialect geography and sociolinguistics, but also smaller sub-fields such as the study of slang and perceptual dialectology. Varieties studied include the South, the Eastern Seaboard, the Middle West, African American English, Cuban English, and others. A growing sense of unity in the discipline is reflected by recurring topics and methods across earlier boundaries between sub-disciplines. For instance, computerized data and statistical analyses are standard tools nowadays, and a few papers explicitly address the possibilities and limitations of these methods. The study of variation and change of linguistic varieties has largely replaced earlier, monolithic notions of dialect, and the question of change in dialects, the erosion of traditional speech forms under the impact of modern communication patterns and socio-economic developments, is investigated in several contributions. In general, a recent orientation towards the history and development of nonstandard varieties is reflected in the book - several papers study diffusion patterns of linguistic forms, or discuss the emergence of individual dialects or dialectal forms in a language contact framework. Altogether, the papers provide a lively illustration of and a fairly representative selection from ongoing high-quality linguistic research into American English.

Resumen: Problems of how to describe and explain the forms and functions of English outside Britain and the United States (and of varieties within the two countries) have become central for English linguistics over the past twenty years. The present collection combines 8 of Gorlach's major articles in the field written between 1984 and 1988. They range from methodological and state-of-the-art accounts to treatments of "colonial lag", from lexicographical problems, and translations into pidgins and creoles to papers focussing on individual regions.

Resumen: The main purpose of this study is to compare and contrast the English-Chinese translated financial terms of Mainland China and Hong Kong in light of the necessary criteria for special communication terminology, and explore the feasibility of standardisation. Some distinctive linguistic properties and translation methods of the two regions' Chinese financial terminology will be illustrated based on data from an industry glossary and major bank annual reports. The present situation is that Mainland China and Hong Kong display both similarities and differences in their Chinese translation of financial terms. With the increasing contact since the 1997 handover, the two regions appear to have been influencing each other, especially in that Mainland China has been adopting Hong Kong's Chinese translations. In view of the fact that some translation scholars and practitioners advocate the standardisation of Chinese financial terminology in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan for the sake of better economic development, this paper outlines the main properties of the two regions' terminologies and evaluates how such standardisation might possibly proceed. Limited research has been done with regard to the translation of Chinese financial terminology and this exploratory study will fill that gap and attract similar studies in the translation and terminology fields.

Resumen: Containing all new material and published for the American Dialect Society's centennial celebration (1889-1989), this volume bings together in one place, as no previously published work has, current approaches to the general problems of language distribution and variation. The several chapters offer accounts of how questions are formulated and how data are collected, stored, and intepreted in the various research traditions of dialectology and sociolinguistics, particularly as they have been carried out by researchers associated with the American Dialect Society. More specifically, this book takes trips to the scholar's laboratory. How is this work done? What pitfalls in fieldwork, processing, and interpretation have been encountered and how have they been overcome? What techniques have been used to get at the facts and underlying explanations of language variety? What does recent work suggest about the most rewarding areas and methods for future investigation?

Resumen: Analizar cómo la estructura y uso del lenguaje coexisten y se desarrollan, medir hasta qué punto el significado referencial y comunicativo del mensaje que se emite se ve afectado por cambios en la estructura formal, es, tal vez, el interés primordial de la gramática actual. Aquí se ofrece la descripción de algunos patrones sintáctico-pragmáticos del español, apoyándose en los datos obtenidos en tres modalidades dialectales: el español de San Juan de Puerto Rico, el español porteño y el madrileño.
