ROJO, Guillermo. THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE CURRENT SPANISH LEXICON. Lingüística [online]. 2024, vol.40, e206.  Epub Sep 10, 2024. ISSN 2079-312X.  https://doi.org/10.5935/2079-312x.20240007.

The primary objective of this work is to present a general vision of the distribution of the lexicon in the different Hispanic countries. The data come from the Diccionario de Frecuencias Léxicas, incorporated into version 1.1 of CORPES, built on 180 million words from the press texts of this corpus. The results obtained, which are also based on the dispersion indices, show a high degree of congruence, based on the frequency of use (type frequency), compatible with the expected difference between the varieties, based on the frequency of inventory (token frequency).

Keywords : Lexicon; statistical analysis; frequency; dispersion; diatopic variability.
