PADRON MARTINEZ, Alfonso. THE ZOOLOGICAL LEXICON THAT REFERS TO LOVERS IN COPLAS DEL AMOR FELIZ OF CANCIONERO FOLKLÓRICO DE MÉXICO. Anu. let. lingüíst. filol. [online]. 2019, vol.7, n.2, pp.121-148.  Epub 29-Nov-2021. ISSN 2448-8224.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.adel.7.2.2019.1557.

This paper analyzes the lexicon with zoological references (mammals, birds, ocean animals and insects) used to refer to the beloved in 1 995 coplas of the Mexican Folk Cancionero. It is assumed that the speakers give an account of the situational and cultural context in which they find themselves from the use of a certain lexicon during the process of creating the coplas. In the light of the data analyzed, it was found that within the poetics of the popular Mexican lyric there are processes of metaphorization, with the aim of referring the beloved in a direct or indirect way, granting her zoological qualities from one of his features (mouth, arms, voice and body/appearance).
