Abstract

This paper aims to show one of the lexical peculiarities of certain women's magazines, such as the creation of units and the use of new words formed with different native mechanisms or a combination of native and foreign elements. Based on a corpus that was developed, different voices are presented and analyzed from the point of view of their formation and their semantic-pragmatic value in the text. In addition, the aspect of typographical marking of the units in relation to standard Spanish is observed.
