Interview.Abstract
Scott Schwenter is a professor of Hispanic Linguistics, related to the Spanish and Portuguese Department of The Ohio State University in the United States. His research focuses on sociolinguistics and Pragmatic studies. It works with corpora-based grammatical issues and uses multivariate statistical analysis of large scale patterns in different varieties of Spanish and Portuguese. Schwenter is mainly interested in the subject of the contextual conditioning of linguistic variables. One of his research questions is why speakers choose to express content in a certain way when faced with multiple options for broadcasting the same content. His most recent work focuses on the pronominal systems of Spanish and Portuguese and also on denial in the Romance languages in general. --- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22409/cadletrasuff.2017n55a560Downloads
