ELT: Inglés para fines específicos


ASPECTOS LINGÜÍSTICOS DE LA RIMA EN EL ARGOT INGLÉS (LILLO BUADES, ANTONIO)
El slang constituye uno de los terrenos de creación léxica más fecundos donde el ingenio, el humor y el deleite verbal se manifiestan de una manera más clara y directa. El presente estudio arroja una nueva luz sobre la función que desempeña el paralelismo fonético y la rima en la formación de palabras, tal como se presentan en el argot inglés, y examina los recursos morfológicos y semánticos más peculiares que intervienen en la reduplicación rimada y en el rhyming slang. El análisis realizado pone de relieve la gran vitalidad de ambas categorías lexicogenésicas en el inglés contemporáneo, cuyo vocabulario adquiere un colorido y unos valores expresivos tales que desbordan la propia denotación de la palabra.
