CHAVEZ-BELLIDO, Dina Emeteria; BERRIO-QUISPE, Margot Luliana; CANGALAYA-SEVILLANO, Luis Miguel  e  ARIAS-CHAVEZ, Dennis. MORPHOLOGICAL STRUCTURE AND SEMANTIC CONTENT OF THE TOPONYMS OF HUAROCHIRÍ PROVINCE (PERU). Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.79, pp.200-215.  Epub 17-Nov-2022.

This qualitative study analyzes 140 place names or toponyms of the Peruvian province of Huarochirí, department of Lima, under two aspects: morphological and semantic. The study of the toponyms presented relevant characteristics, such as simple and compound lexies, which outnumber simple lexemes; and determined different states of cultural symbiosis, in which it highlights the onomasiological ability of the ancient settlers to associate place names with their cultural worldview. It concludes that languages such as Jacaru, Aymara and Quechua, that were spoken before Spanish in the Peruvian area of Huarochirí, left in the place names a clear imprint.

Palavras-chave : morphology; semantics; toponyms; Huarochirí.
