El cambio de código como estrategia discursiva en un corpus radiofónico. Aspectos estructurales

Abstract

This study represents an analysis of the code-switching strategy in the discourse of a radio journalist very popular in the Valencian Community (Spain). The paper revises some structural questions derived from the corpus data: a) the problems of limits between code-switching and interference phenomena; b) the tipology of code-switching; c) the incidence in some discursive structures, and d) the relationship between report-speech and code-switching. On the other hand, the context of the linguistic contact in the Valencian Community explains some of the main features this strategy represents in the discourse analyzed.
