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.

Research has tracked the movies released theatrically in the U.S. to determine where they were filmed, why they filmed in the locations they did and how much was spent to produce them. We do this to help businesspeople and policymakers, particularly those with investments in California, better understand the state’s place in the competitive business environment that is feature film production. For reasons described later in this report’s methodology section, FilmL.A. adopted a different film project sampling method for 2016. This year, our sample is based on the top 100 feature films at the domestic box office released theatrically within the U.S. during the 2016 calendar

Abrams and his wife Katie McGrath pose at the Children's Defense Fund­California 24th Annual "Beat the Odds" Awards in Culver City, California December 4, 2014. Reuters/Mario Anzuoni During his acceptance speech at the Visual Effects Society Awards, J.J. Abrams admitted he was thrilled to have worked on “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” He said it’s been a thrill working on “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” The director also expressed his gratitude for Lucasfilm for making his lifetime dream of working on the movie a reality. According to Deadline (http://deadline.com/2015/02/j­j­abrams­star­wars­dream­come­true­ves­awards­1201366546/), J.J. Abrams was especially grateful for head of Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy for giving him the opportunity to direct the movie. “I want to thank Kathy Kennedy for saying the words, ‘Do you want to direct Star Wars?’ and actually being in a position to let me direct Star Wars,” he said. Abrams revealed that the past couple of years he’s spent working on “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” “in the world of light sabers and tie fighters,” has reportedly been “absolutely challenging” for him. The movie has suffered numerous leaks in the past, from plot details to leaked concept art. However, this has not stopped the director from keeping mum on production details.
