“…ECM appear in our corpus mainly as discourse framers that provide expressiveness to the interaction. These data coincide with those obtained by Montes-Alcalá (2016), Ortego-Antón (2018) and Pérez-Sabater (2022). However, these findings are in contrast with Verheijen and Van Hout (2022), in which anglicisms were mainly inserted for lexical needs.…”

“…In the case of the Spanish language, several studies have explored code-mixing between Spanish and other peninsular languages (Ibarra Murillo, 2019) or between Spanish and two or more languages (Kulavuz-Onal & Vásquez, 2018;Pérez-Sabater, 2022;Pérez-Sabater & Maguelouk-Moffo, 2019); however, the study of the relationship between Spanish and English has a prevalent position in research on code-mixing in CMC (Giménez Folqués, 2022;Montes-Alcalá, 2016;Ortego-Antón, 2018), in response to what Rodríguez Gonzalez (2002, p. 46) defined as "youth Anglomania". These studies focus mainly on characterizing which types of English borrowings are most common in code-mixing contexts in CMC; in this sense, Sanou (2018) finds that 75% of anglicisms occurring in the CMC of adult Argentine Facebook users are superfluous or unnecessary and justifies this high presence of anglicisms as a sign of a more youthful, spontaneous, and highly informal form of expression specific to CMC.…”

Aims: The widespread use of computer-mediated communication (CMC) among adolescents has favored the creation of a newly written code called digitalk. This new code includes, among other characteristics, the use of foreign words as textisms, mainly anglicisms. These textisms also serve as a mark of identity among young speakers. The aim of this paper is twofold: first, to describe which are the more frequent anglicisms used by Spanish adolescents in their CMC and the code-mixing pathways of inclusion; second, to examine the possible influence between the use of anglicisms in the CMC of Spanish adolescents and their orthographic competence. Method: Based on an exploratory methodology, a corpus of interactions through WhatsApp of a group of adolescents attending Compulsory Secondary Education in a region of southern Spain has been analyzed. Data analysis: Sketch Engine software was used for corpus analysis, presenting the normalized frequency (1/1,000) of textisms, misspellings, and multimodal elements. Finally, for the descriptive statistical analysis of the data and for the bivariate correlation analysis applying Pearson’s coefficient, IBM SPSS v.26 software was used. Findings: The results indicate that young people use English Code-Mixings (ECM) as discursive framers with an expressive aim and as a sign of belonging to a specific community of speakers. Moreover, no positive correlation is observed between the use of these ECMs and a lower orthographic competence. Implications: ECMs show an important pragmatic function in CMC among Spanish adolescents. Furthermore, they are one of the elements that have been incorporated into the digital norm of Spanish and can be used in Compulsory Education as a resource for the acquisition of communicative competence in adolescents along with other textisms. Originality: This is the first research that analyzes the frequency and function of anglicisms in Spanish CMC and their impact on the orthographic competence of Spanish adolescents.

RESUMEN El aumento en el uso de las redes sociales ha impactado plenamente en los sistemas de comunicación sociales como el lenguaje. En el caso de la lengua española, uno de los efectos que encontramos es la masiva llegada de palabras y expresiones inglesas. Debido a la popularidad de entornos como Facebook o Twitter, la llegada de estas voces está teniendo un arraigo considerable entre sus hablantes. Por lo tanto, nuestro objetivo en la presente investigación es observar qué anglicismos aparecen con mayor frecuencia en estas redes sociales, mediante la recogida de una muestra de 1721 mensajes, y observar si tienen un impacto suficientemente amplio en la sociedad como para aparecer en corpus y diccionarios académicos como el DLE y el CORPES XXI de la RAE y ASALE. Asimismo, dentro de este contexto social resultará interesante analizar en qué franjas de edad y género se utilizan con mayor frecuencia. A partir de esta premisa, en los resultados observaremos cómo aparece un gran número de anglicismos en redes sociales, principalmente usados por los jóvenes, pero con una baja representación en los diccionarios académicos, debido principalmente a la reciente llegada de estas palabras.
