Dissertation Abstract:

The phraseological and phaseographical study of idioms peculiar to the modern
Spanish variety spoken in Mexico is scarce. In this dissertation, following
the study and review of general Spanish phraseological theory and Mexican
phraseographical practice starting from the first Mexican Spanish
lexicographical works, I undertook the creation of tools that would enable me
to analyze different aspects of idiom phraseographical articles from various
dictionaries focusing on modern Mexican Spanish. The resulting product is a
corpus containing 1477 dictionary articles called Corpus de locuciones
coloquiales del español mexicano –CoLCEMex– primarily based on the
phraseographical articles of idioms set down in contemporary Mexican Spanish
dictionaries: the Diccionario del español de México (2010), the Diccionario de
mexicanismos (2010), the Diccionario breve de mexicanismos (2001) and the
Diccionario de coloquialismos y términos dialectales del español (2011). In
order to observe the course of Mexican phraseographical practice from its
origins, I also developed small corpora made up of articles of idioms
appearing in four Mexican lexicographical works from the 19th and 20th
centuries and then carried out comparative studies of seven idioms that appear
in the three 19th century works. Two other comparative analyses have been
carried out: one centered on the macro- and microstructure of three European
Spanish phraseological dictionaries and another, similar study focusing on the
four main sources of CoLCEMex. Despite having studied all the elements that
make up a phraseographical article individually by means of this corpus, the
establishment of citation forms and the tagging of idiom parts of speech are
two aspects in particular that have been the object of in-depth analysis.
Other topics discussed in this dissertation include recognizing idioms with
non-referential enclitics, the importance of the valence of idioms that
include a verb, the distinction between verbal idioms and semioracionales
(idioms with lexicalized subject and predicate, but which require either a
direct or indirect object), the treatment of idioms with restricted verb
tenses/persons, with reflexive clitics, with indirect object pronouns, with
variable constituents, and with optional elements. The final result of this
research is a proposed method for establishing idiom citation forms and part
of speech tagging geared toward the development of an overall systematic
approach to the phraseographical treatment of idioms.
