This paper investigates the final Pola de Siero’s contours in absolute interrogatives. We carried out 24 surveys of situations using the methodology of Interactive Atlas of Spanish Intonation, with examples of various intonation contours, which are employed to encode different semantic nuances. The 24 subjects of our corpus were selected taking into account three social variables (age, education and sex). We aim to address one question in this study: is there a correlation between social factors and the final contours of Pola de Siero in absolute interrogatives?
We found that 21 informants in our survey show a tendency towards the final falling contours in absolute interrogatives, a salient feature of northern Spanish, which contrasts with the final rises in Standard Peninsular Spanish (three informants). As a consequence of this, we could say that this prosodic feature is a relevant one in our corpus and that it seems there is not an Asturian prosodic accommodation in absolute interrogatives; this pattern is
not acquired by Spanish speakers who have family in Burgos or Valladolid.

Our paper aims to provide an overview of the diminutives using a spontaneous speech corpus from Pola de Siero (Asturias, Spain). This paper presents the results of the research undertaken on 24 speakers that we selected taking into account three 'basic' social variables: age, gender, and educational background. We also consider each speaker's mother tongue, occupation, social class and direct ties with the Asturian language and the consequences each may bring, among others. Consideraţii preliminare Cercetarea diminutivelor a trezit interesul unui număr considerabil de lingvişti până în prezent. Unii s-au centrat pe valorile de bază ale acestora: cea noţională, adică dimensiunea de mic; sau cea axiologică, care se bazează pe funcţii şi valori [Alonso, 1935; Náñez Fernández, 1973; Coşeriu, 1965; Monge, 1965; NGLE] 2. Alţii, pe regulile şi restricţiile combinatorii ale morfemelor apreciative [Varela, 1992]. Iar alţii, inclusiv au propus o nouă disciplină, morfopragmatica, care studiază informaţia pragmatică asociată anumitor morfeme [Dressler şi Merlini, 1994]. Au existat şi autori care au cercetat originea diminutivului şi lexicalizările sale [González Ollé, 1962], morfonologia bazelor consonantice monosilabice ale diminutivelor [Horcajada, 1987/1988] sau influenţa diminutivelor în formarea sufixelor diminutivale [Crowhurst, 1992; Harris, 1994]. Nu au lipsit nici studii comparative [vezi, de pildă, cercetările lui D'Angelis, 2013; D'Angelis şi Mariottini, 2006, despre diminutivele din spaniolă şi italiană; cea a lui Zafiu, 2011, care face referire la puţinele lexicalizări ale diminutivului din limba română în comparaţie cu alte limbi romanice]. Dintr-un punct de vedere sociolingvistic au existat lucrări care au cercetat diminutivul; Shetter [1959: 80], de pildă, afirmă că diminutivul în Olanda se întâlneşte în vorbirea femeilor; Paredes [2012, 2015] a analizat folosirea diminutivelor în vorbirea din Madrid, luând în considerare cele 25 de variabile ale proiectului PRESEEA (Proyecto para el Estudio Sociolingüístico del Español de España y América), şi a demonstrat că sufixul-ito/-ita este 1 O versiune spaniolă a acestui text va apărea în RRL: traducerea acestui text din spaniolă a fost realizată de Cristina Bleorţu (Universitatea din Zürich), cbleortu@hotmail.com şi Alina-Viorela Prelipcean (Universitatea "Ştefan cel Mare" din Suceava), alinavarvaroi@yahoo.com. Îi mulţumim şi Cristinei Strugar pentru comentariile făcute. 2 Este adevărat că nu în toate studiile se ajunge la această atitudine conciliantă. De fapt, dezbaterea despre noţional şi axiologic a fost obiectul unei polemici vii în sânul lingvisticii hispanice: Monge [1965] susţine ambele valori, în timp ce Coşeriu [1965] susţine doar noţionalul ("reducerea obiectivă") şi Alonso [1935] axiologicul, ca funcţii de bază.

In this paper our purpose is to show that he Kabatekian variationist theory that, at first glance, may seem not to have immediate connection with the study of prosody in Pola de Siero, contributes to an adequate approach of a sociolinguistic study in a diglossic society. To carry out this task, we shall focus on several aspects: (i) firstly, we will present some of the previous works; (ii) secondly, we will emphasize the importance of the Kabatekian theory in a sociolinguistic study; (iii) thirdly, we will describe the methodology that we have used; (iv) fourtly, we will describe the results obtained; and, (v) finally, some brief conclusions.

Resumen: Nuestra comunicación pretende ofrecer una visión de la metodología que se utiliza para el estudio de la variación lingüística de la lengua rumana partiendo de un corpus de habla espontánea, el cual pone el foco de atención en el norte de Rumanía. De esta manera, a partir del mencionado corpus, se busca poner sobre la mesa de discusión una gran variedad de fenómenos fonéticos, morfosintácticos y léxicos desde una perspectiva sociolingüística. Se trata así de un ambicioso proyecto que puede servir como hilo conductor para otros futuros trabajos de carácter sociolingüístico, facilitando una reflexión conjunta en torno a la variación lingüística del habla del norte de Rumanía.

Resumen: Lo que nos proponemos en este artículo es presentar la manifestación de los plurales femeninos asturianos en un corpus de español hablado de La Pola Siero a partir de un corpus de veinticuatro encuestas semiespontáneas, que se recogieron desde enero hasta diciembre de 2014; la selección de los informantes se hizo en función de tres variables sociales preestablecidas (sexo, edad, nivel de estudios). Para llevar a cabo tal tarea, en primer lugar, presentaremos la situación sociolingüística de La Pola Siero; en segundo lugar, se describirá el paradigma de los plurales femeninos en castellano y asturiano, y presentaremos algunos estudios previos sobre este tema; después se mostrarán los resultados; y, por último, las conclusiones, donde se verá que los informantes no son categorías fijas que pertenecen a determinados grupos sociales, sino que se mueven lingüísticamente en función de varios factores Abstract: Our aim in this paper is to present the feminine plurals in a corpora of spoken Spanish from La Pola Siero, using twenty-four surveys, which were collected from January to December of 2014; the subjects were selected based on three pre-established social variables (sex, age, educational level). To carry out this task, first of all, we will present the sociolinguistic situation from La Pola Siero; secondly, we will describe the feminine plurals in Spanish and Asturian and we will present some previous studies; then we will show the results; and, finally, the conclusions, where we can see that our subjects are not fixed categories that belong to a social group; they move linguistically according to several factors (Blommaert 2010, Kabatek 1997a, 1997b, 2017).
