The aim of this article is to demonstrate, through a brief analysis of the semiotic-dialogic processing of a word from its genesis until its register as a dictionary entry, how the word can drive discourses which sustain and which are sustained by values constitutive of the social group which mobilizes the language and, thus, it can inject into the memory of the language not only linguistic forms, but also judgement and worldview. From a dialogic point of view of language, it is argued that language, as a system of ideological signs, is a sociocultural construct and, therefore, it is interdependent of the process of formation of social groups. The analysis developed shows that the lexicon can, sometimes, signalize, through the forms, linguistic convergence and, other times, it can show, through the discourses it mobilizes nowadays, a distinction of vernaculars.
