This research seeks to integrate social theory into the spatiality analysis of the Andean Spanish of the Santandereano subdialect (Santander department [state], Colombia). The application of a probabilistic methodology allowed the identification of linguistic hierarchical centers, given the impact of population size and geographical and social distance between these localities and the communities within their range of influence. A qualitative analysis stablished the effect of the physical friction of distance on the development of perceptions and values associated with the social environment -an eminently rural space characterized by strong social networks-. Linguistic distance and other factors of resistance such as regional idiosyncrasies reinforce a type of linguistic conservatism that promotes greater distinction between regional varieties. The integration of the spatial dimension through geolinguistics leads the study to advance the proposal for the regional division of this variety.

Palabras clave : geolinguistics; models of gravity; space; spatiality; hierarchy; social networks; rurality.
