This Doctoral Thesis deals with the lexical repertoire of Hunsrückisch spoken in the La Plata Basin. The immigration language of Hunsrückisch was brought to southern Brazil after the first arrival of German immigrants in 1824, which was the beginning of an intense linguistic contact with Brazilian Portuguese and Platinum Spanish (in Argentina and Paraguay). Elements of dialectal variety arising from this linguistic contact (hybridity, linguistic calques, etc.) as well as the German origin in the lexical repertoire are analyzed from the perspective of pluridimensional and relational Dialectology. Here, the two most important migratory processes of transatlantic and inter-American migration are considered. The data analyzed in this study comes from interviews at 41 geographical data points, conducted within the framework of the ALMA-H project (Linguistic-Contactual Atlas of German Minorities in the La Plata Basin - Hunsrückisch. |
