Santa Ana A., Otto
Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, v15 n1 p3-35 Feb 1993
Critiques controversies about Chicano dialects and, particularly, the linguistic status of Chicano English. Proposes a model of Chicano languages/dialects based on assumptions about the nature of the speech setting of Chicanos. Characterizes Chicano English as the autonomous vernacular dialect of native-English-speaking Chicanos. (70 references) (Author/SV)
