CHAVEZ FAJARDO, Soledad  y  KORDIC RIQUELME, Raïssa. On demonyms: historiography, monikers, and standardization. Lit. lingüíst. [online]. 2019, n.39, pp.275-300. ISSN 0716-5811.  http://dx.doi.org/10.29344/0717621x.39.2014.

The present paper explores three topics that are complementary to the study of demonyms we have carried out in two previous essays (Kordic Riquelme and Chávez Fajardo: 2017; and Chávez Fajardo and Kordic Riquelme (in press). First, we introduce a brief historiography of demonyms. Second, we make reference to the moniker, a separate lexical component that is absolutely independent from the ethnic and post-toponymical demonym. Finally, we point out the relevance of demonyms within the standardizing processes, an aspect which in fact has been poorly addressed, but it essential during the first stages of linguistic regulation.

Palabras clave : Demonym; toponymy; standardization; Chilean Spanish.
