TORRES SANCHEZ, Nadiezdha. The Accusative Pronominal System of the Spanish in Contact with Chapultenango’s Zoque. Anu. let. lingüíst. filol. [online]. 2021, vol.9, n.2, pp.111-139.  Epub 22-Nov-2021. ISSN 2448-8224.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.adel.2021.9.2.47364.

This research aims to describe the Spanish language in contact with the Chapultenango’s Zoque language. Specifically, it provides evidence around the neutralization of the gender mark in the accusative pronominal system, showing a two-case simplified system in which the direct object pronoun (OD) is lo(s) and the indirect object pronoun is le(s), both of them without gender distinction. Likewise, it shows that this neutralization is an indirect contact-induced change in which internal variation of Spanish interacts with the grammatical structure of the Zoque.

Palabras llave : linguistic contact; Spanish in contact; pronominal system; Zoque.
