Over the last few decades, the gender variable has been investigated in terms of linguistic variation. A number of studies (mainly phonological in nature) have been carried out which have generated preliminary conclusions such as women are more conservative and use more standard forms of language than men or that men are more innovative than women (Chambers, 2009; Labov, 1994). Generally, we are aware that new words are created every day which is indicative of the dynamism of languages and the changes taking place in a given society. The study of new lexical entities, called neologisms, allows us to understand how language speakers adapt to social changes. The two issues mentioned above are our main motivation to conduct this investigation which will be based on a linguistic approach with a focus on neology. Hence, this paper focuses on Spanish neological units produced by women and men as found in contemporary newspaper articles and blogs through a qualitative analysis of neologisms used by women and men as well as a qualitative analysis of the formation of these neologisms. Finally, we present a comparison between the results obtained in both types of text.

面对词汇创新的男女

在过去的几十年中,已经根据语言变异研究了性别变量。已经进行了许多研究(主要是语音学的研究),这些研究得出了初步的结论,例如女性比男性更保守,使用的语言标准形式更多,或者男性比女性更具创新性(Chambers,2009; Labov,1994)。 )。通常,我们知道每天都会创建新词,这表明语言的动态性和特定社会中正在发生的变化。对称为新词的新词汇实体的研究使我们能够理解说语言的人如何适应社会变化。上面提到的两个问题是我们进行这项调查的主要动机,这将基于语言学方法,重点是神经学。因此,本文通过对男女使用的新词的定性分析以及对这些新词的形成的定性分析,重点研究了当代报纸文章和博客中发现的由男性和女性组成的西班牙生物学单位。最后,我们对两种文本类型的结果进行了比较。
