Description: Este libro presenta un panorama general de la estratificación social del habla madrileña. Se propone una aproximación a la dinámica lingüística de la ciudad a través del análisis de un conjunto de variables fónicas, léxicas, morfosintácticas y pragmáticas que se describen e interpretan desde los principios de la sociolingüística cuantitativa.
Review Quotes: To conclude, the book presents a useful resource for sociolinguists interested in sociolinguistic variation in Madrid, whether the variable of interest is phonetic, morphosyntactic, or pragmatic. Overall, by presenting various analyses of linguistic patterns across socially distinguished neighborhoods and the integration of a recently arrived community, the authors have achieved their goal of presenting a contemporary view of Madrid Spanish and successfully provided a tool for future researchers in the field.
