JANG, Ji Son. THE DYNAMICS OF ALTERNATION AMONG TÚ, VOS AND USTED IN MEDELLÍN (COLOMBIA) FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF COMMUNICATION ACCOMMODATION THEORY. Forma funcion, Santaf, de Bogot, D.C. [online]. 2012, vol.25, n.1, pp.129-144. ISSN 0120-338X.

In this article, we present some cases in which we observe the pronominal alternation on the Medellin speakers, based on the Communication Accommodation Theory and specially related to the notion of convergence. The speakers of the Medellin community practice the convergence strategy throught the ajustement to the pronominal treatment used by their speaker when they interact with: 1) the foreigners not spanish speakers; 2) the spanish speakers not using "vos"; 3) the colombians not using "vos"; 4) the inhabitants coming from another Antioquia zone and 5) the persons from Medellin belonging to a different socio-economical status.

Palavras-chave : Pronominal alternation; Medellin (Colombia); Accommodation; Convergence.
