U.S. Mexican Spanish West of the Mississippi
U.S. Mexican Spanish West of the Mississippi proposes a macro-dialect of the most widely spoken Spanish variety in the western United States from a number of social and linguistic angles. This book is unique in its focus on this one variety of Spanish, which allows for a closer investigation of the social context and linguistic features through a number of different topics. Comprised of 13 chapters divided into two sections, this textbook provides insight into the history, demographics, migration, and social issues of US Mexican Spanish in the first section and its lexicography, phonology, and structure in the second. Useful for scholars interested in Spanish in the United States, dialectology, and sociolinguistics, this is also an ideal resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of Spanish.

The investigation first reveals that several varieties display more complex systems than the binary masculine/feminine contrast familiar from modern French or Italian. Moreover, it emerges that traditional accounts, whereby neuter gender ...
Gender, Sprache, Kognition
Die Debatte über gender-inklusiven Sprachgebrauch wird in der Wissenschaft wie in der Gesellschaft kontrovers geführt. Dabei werden kognitive Aspekte häufig vernachlässigt; dies gilt in besonderem Ausmaß für das Spanische, wo die Interpretation „generischer“ Maskulina und gender-inklusiver Formen der Personenbezeichnung aus psycholinguistischer Perspektive praktisch nicht erforscht ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag, um diese Forschungslücke zu schließen und die eher theoretisch und z.T. ideologisch geprägte Debatte auf eine empirische Basis zu stellen. Mithilfe eines innovativen Versuchsaufbaus, der auch nicht-binäre Personenbezeichnungsformen berücks...
