Abstract

The presence of anglicisms in both general and country-specific Spanish has been repeatedly studied. However, there has been little study of their use in lexicographical works. This paper studies the anglicisms in the Diccionario de uso del español de Chile (2010), by exhibiting the differences between the Chilean and peninsular Spanish.
