The Latin American Fashion Reader. New York: Berg, 2005. SI PANGL SH History and Origins The history of what people call “Spanglish,” using Spanish and English in the same conversation, can be traced back in modern times to the middle of the 19th century. In 1846 Mexico and the United States went to war. Mexico sur- rendered in 1848 with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. With its surrender, Mexico lost over half of its territory to the United States, what is now either all or parts of the states of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Wyoming. The treaty estab- lished that Mexican citizens who remained in the new U.S. lands automatically became U.S. citizens, so a whole group of Spanish speakers was added to the U.S. population. Then, five years later the United States decided that it needed extra land to build a southern railway line that avoided the deep snow and the high passes of the northern route. This resulted in the Gadsden Purchase of 1853. This purchase consisted of portions of southern New Mexico and Arizona, and established the current U.S.-Mexico border. Once more, Mexican citizens who stayed in this area automatically became U.S.

The majority of these studies have focused on the interaction between a local language and a non-local language. In this project, I propose an analysis of the mixture of two world languages (Spanish and English), which can be categorised as both local and non-local. I do this through the analysis of the enormously successful reggaeton genre, which is characterised by its use of Spanglish. I used two data types to inform my research: a corpus of code-switching instances in top 20 reggaeton songs, and a questionnaire on attitudes towards Spanglish in general and in music. I collected 200 answers to the questionnaire – half from American English-speakers, and the other half from Spanish-speaking Hispanics of various nationalities.

  • Espanglish Y Cambio De Código En El Valle De San Joaquín, California
    Symposium Proceedings Espanglish y cambio de código en el Valle de San Joaquín, California Teresa Fernández-Ulloa, California State University. [email protected] Abstract En esta comunicación presentamos un análisis de estos dos fenómenos lingüísticos, muy extendidos en ciertas zonas de Estados Unidos, debido a las raíces hispanas de muchas de las personas que en él habitan. Como profesores, los hemos observado en el ambiente escolar, es especial en si- tuaciones poco formales, y presentamos aquí los resultados de un estudio sociolingüístico de un corpus de grabaciones realizadas escuelas del conda- do de Kern, al sur del Valle de San Joaquín, en California (USA). En esta comunidad se da bilingüismo social e individual (sólo por parte de la pobla- ción "chicana"), ambos de carácter diglósico: nos encontramos con dos lenguas (inglés y castellano), una de las cuales, está relegada a situaciones informales, mientras que el inglés es la lengua de enseñanza, negocios, etc. La alternancia de códigos (code-switching) es uno de los fenómenos más frecuentes en las comunidades bilingües: no es otra cosa que el uso alterno de dos lenguas en el mismo discurso. Este fenómeno ha sido objeto de estudio de varios investigadores como Poplack y Sakoff (1983). Estos inves- tigadores encontraron que lejos de las creencias superficiales de profanos (y no tan profanos), que ven el fenómeno como una clara manifestación de corrupción y deterioro lingüísticos, de conducta verbal indeterminada, el cambio de código resulta gobernado por requisitos funcionales y pragmáti- cos. En cuanto al espanglish o spanglish, los primeros indicios de este dia- lecto (también se la considera una lengua criolloide), se remontan a fines del siglo XIX, inmediatamente después del Tratado de Guadalupe Hidalgo.

  • Tales of Travels Across Languages: Languages and Their Anti-Languages
    Tales of travels across languages: Languages and their anti-languages Marcela Polanco and David epston Marcela Polanco works as a Counsellor at the Student Counseling Center, at Nova Southeastern University, Florida, and teaches at the Farquhar Department of the same university. She can be contacted via email: [email protected], or 3301 College Ave., Parker Building Suite 150, Ft. Lauderdale, FL. 33314, USA. David Epston is one of the originators of what has come to be known as narrative therapy. He lives and works in Auckland, New Zealand, and travels widely to teach. Appropriately, his latest book is entitled Down under and up over: Travels in narrative therapy (2009). David can be contacted by email: [email protected] This paper is a collaboration between an apprentice bilingual translator/ narrative therapist (Marcela) and one of the originators of narrative therapy (David). Studies of translation and bilingualism offer interesting and useful contributions to the renewal of narrative therapy. As narrative ideas migrate cultures, these crossings can enrich, acculturate, and diversify narrative practices. At the same time, considerations of bilinguality or multilinguality can influence our practice within languages. The example of therapeutic practice that is offered illustrates how narrative therapeutic conversations can move between and across multiple namings of people’s predicaments. In this process, understandings need not be ironed out, as often happens in monolingual conversations. Instead, multilinguality puts names in play as transitory constructions, susceptible to renewal or reinvention. Keywords: bilingualism, narrative therapy, multilingualism, language, anti-language. 62 The International Journal of Narrative Therapy and Community Work The International Journal of Narrative Therapy and Community Work 2009 No.

  • Spanglish: a Controversial Dystopic Or Utopic Language? Controversial
    1 Spanglish: A Controversial Dystopic or Utopic Language? Controversial opinions abound about Spanglish making it a “sizzling topic” (Montes- Alcalá, 2009, p. 98) and “an emotionally charged issue” regardless of whether it is viewed as good or bad (Rothman & Rell, 2005, p. 516). There are diverse opinions on how to define it and what to call it given that the term itself is controversial. The editor of Hispania, the prestigious journal of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese, states, “I cannot think of a more innovative research area than what I will dub ‘Spanglish Studies’” (Spaine Long, 2013, p.435). Indeed teachers’ interest in the influence of English on the Spanish language has increased as the number of immigrants and subsequent generations has increased the population of heritage speakers in our classrooms. However, outside of the academic environment, there is interest as well in how people use language daily and varying attitudes surrounding the issue. In the movie Elysium, released in August 2013, we are introduced to upper class individuals who live on a utopian habitat in space and speak flawless English, French, and Afrikaans, while those living on chaotic and dystopic Earth are depicted as criminals, dirty, and members of the lower class who speak Spanish mixed with English, or Spanglish. This movie, set in the year 2150, is a social commentary of our current society and its beliefs and practices. In this paper I will present varied opinions and definitions of Spanglish and arguments over what we should call this phenomenon, a linguistic analysis including some rules governing its usage, and issues related to speakers using Spanglish as an identity marker.

DEFINING SPANGLISH: A LINGUISTIC CATEGORIZATION OF SPANISH-ENGLISH CODE SWITCHING IN THE UNITED STATES by LEAH MERNAUGH FACULTY ADVISOR, DR. KATHRYN BARTHOLOMEW SECOND READER, DR. KATYA NEMTCHINOVA A project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the University Scholars program Seattle Pacific University DEFINING SPANGLISH 2 Abstract This paper will linguistically explore the forms of Spanish spoken by Spanish-English bilinguals in the United States in order to argue that Spanglish is a complex linguistic system governed by a set of specific linguistic rules and patterns. I will do this by drawing on previous research in this field that examines the phonological patterns, morphological trends, and syntactic constraints that govern acceptable code switches between English and Spanish (Otheguy, 1993; Rodriguez-Gonzalez and Parafita-Couto, 2012; Rothman and Rell, 2005; Lipski, 2008; et al.). This evaluation of Spanglish will also include description and assessment of different arguments regarding how it can best be described linguistically, ultimately claiming that the most compelling argument poses Spanglish as a well-developed system of Spanish-English code-switching.

    Notes 1 Introduction: Taking Testimony, Making Archives Notes to Pages 2–5 1. K. Gavroglou, “Sweet Memories from Tzimbali.” To Vima, August 29, 1999. 2. I am indebted for the use of the term personal archive to a panel organized by colleagues Laura Kunreuther and Carole McGranahan at the American Anthropological Association Meetings in San Francisco in November 2000, entitled “Personal Archives: Collections, Selves, Histories.” On the historian’s “personal archives,” see LaCapra (1985b). 3. On the history and theory of collecting and collections, see, for instance, Benjamin (1955), Stewart (1993), Crane (2000), Chow (2001). 4. The interdisciplinary literature on memory is voluminous, including studies on the “art of memory” from antiquity to modernity (Yates 1966; Matsuda 1996); monuments, public commemoration, and “lieux de mémoire” (Nora 1989; Young 1993; Gillis 1994; Sider and Smith 1997); photography, film, and other kinds of “screen memories” (Kuhn 1995; Hirsch 1997; Sturken 1997; Davis 2000; Strassler 2003); public history and national her- itage (Wright 1985; Hewison 1987; Samuel 1994); and trauma, testimony, and the “sci- ences of memory,” such as psychoanalysis (Langer 1991; Felman and Laub 1992; Caruth 1995, 1996; Hacking 1995; Antze and Lambek 1996); as well as many theoretical analy- ses, review articles, and comparative cultural studies (Connerton 1989; Hutton 1993; Olick and Robbins 1998; Bal, Crewe, and Spitzer 1999; Ben-Amos and Weissberg 1999; Stoler and Strassler 2000). 5. For commentaries on the “memory boom” as a “postmodern” phenomenon, see Fischer (1986), Huyssen (1995). James Faubion has argued that anthropological interest in history and memory might be ascribed to astute “participant observation” of a world in which the past has become the “privileged ground of individual and collective identity, entitlements, of la condition humaine,” but charges nonetheless that “anthropologists have been more likely to reflect this transformation than reflect upon it” (1993b: 44).
