Resumen
BASTERRETXEA SANTISO, Gorka. THE COMPARISON OF SECOND PERSON SINGULAR PRONOUNS IN PENINSULAR SPANISH AND IN BASQUE: AN IMPOSSIBLE MISSION?. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.79, pp.216-236. Epub 18-Nov-2022. ISSN 0120-5587. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n79a12.
This paper takes the second person singular pronouns of North Peninsular Spanish (tú & usted) and those of Basque (hi & zu) as the point of departure, and reexamines published empirical studies on northern peninsular Spanish pronouns (Pedroviejo Esteruelas, 2006; Sampedro Mella, 2016; Sanromán Vilas, 2010). The data on Basque pronouns comes from the analysis of 540 conversations from the series Goenkale. This study concludes that the pronouns are not equivalent due to the existence of a pragmatically unmarked pronoun in Basque: zu. The only similarity is between usted and zu when they are used asymmetrically.
