Abstract:

While there are numerous investigations of the impact English has exerted on
Spanish, the reverse language contact scenario has received comparatively
little attention. This book sheds light on the Spanish influence on the
English vocabulary since 1801, offering the first systematic analysis of the
multitude of words which have been taken over from Spanish and its national
varieties over the past few centuries. The results provided by this study rely
on the evaluation of a comprehensive lexicographical sample of 1355 Spanish
borrowings collected from the Oxford English Dictionary Online. The focus of
linguistic concern here is on the chronological distribution of the various
Spanish-derived words, their contextual usage, stylistic function and sense
development from their earliest attested use in English until today. The
present-day use of the borrowings is illustrated with documentary evidence
retrieved from a variety of English language corpora.
