Overview

Gramática española: Variación social presenta conceptos gramaticales claves de la lengua española a los alumnos intermedios y avanzados de una manera que enfatiza las conexiones entre lo social y lo lingüístico. Esta segunda edición ofrece varios puntos de gramática nuevos y sugerencias de lecturas adicionales. Otro componente nuevo de esta edición es el sitio web que incluye actividades y ejercicios que cubren los temas principales del libro de texto. El sitio web también provee amplias oportunidades para practicar las estructuras gramaticales. Este libro de texto, que está escrito en español, ofrece un repaso de la gramática a través de una presentación de variantes comunes alrededor del mundo hispanohablante, seguida por una explicación de las razones sociohistóricas por las cuales algunas variedades llegan a ser consideradas prestigiosas mientras otras no lo son. Utilizando el habla natural a partir de datos de corpora, Gramática española examina múltiples rasgos gramaticales que varían según factores como el lugar, el grupo social y el contexto. Los estudiantes aprenden la terminología especializada para que puedan identificar categorías y construcciones gramaticales, acabando con una visión clara de cómo los factores sociolingüísticos influyen en la gramática del español. El libro está diseñado para estudiantes del nivel B1 o más avanzado en el Common European Framework for Languages y del nivel intermedio-alto al nivel avanzado-alto de la escala de competencia de ACTFL. Gramática española: Variación social introduces key grammatical concepts in the Spanish language to intermediate and advanced level learners in a way that emphasizes the connections between the social and the linguistic. This second edition offers several new grammar points and suggestions for further reading. A brand-new component of this edition is its accompanying website featuring extensive activities and exercises covering all the main topics in the textbook. The website also provides comprehensive practice with grammatical structures. Written in Spanish, the textbook offers a review of Spanish grammar by presenting documented variants of linguistic features in the speech of Spanish speakers and underlining the sociohistorical reasons why some varieties come to be considered prestigious while others are not. Using naturally occurring speech from data in research corpora, Gramática española examines multiple grammatical features that vary depending on factors such as place, social group, and situation. Students are introduced to specialized terminology that gives them the ability to identify categories and grammatical constructions, providing them with an in-depth understanding of how sociolinguistic factors influence Spanish grammar. This unique textbook is designed for students at level B1 or higher on the Common European Framework for Languages, and Intermediate High to Advanced High on the ACTFL proficiency scale.

Reviews

"""This highly innovative textbook contains instructive, engaging activities incorporating real-world examples of language use that enable students to discover the logical structure and predictable patterns of grammatical variation. The diverse practice exercises provide students with a deep understanding of core topics of Spanish grammar, including features of heritage speaker varieties often excluded from advanced grammar textbooks. The equitable examination of grammar topics and Spanish-speaking communities allows Gramática espanola to pack a double-punch. Students advance their understanding of Spanish grammar and increase their sociocultural awareness around stigmas attached to particular linguistic forms. Achieving these goals is a triumph within the classroom and beyond."" Esther L. Brown, Department of Spanish & Portuguese, University of Colorado Boulder, USA. “Kim Potowski and Naomi Shin have done an outstanding job expanding what is already an invaluable and unique resource for Spanish teachers and students. Exploring grammatical structures in an accessible way that highlights linguistic variation and its social perceptions allows readers to truly understand why language users make the choices they do. After reading this book, engaging in the suggested discussion topics and completing the activities, students are able to examine linguistic attitudes in a new light, while also feeling empowered in their own language use.” Dr. Sonia Barnes, Associate Professor of Spanish, Marquette University, USA."
