Abstract

This work explores the linguistic attitudes of 89 speakers of Rioplatense Spanish towards Andalusian variety. From a methodological point of view, the study is inserted within the framework of a larger project named “Project for the study of beliefs and attitudes towards current Spanish varieties” (PRECAVES XXI). There are two types of identification (exact and general) and four significance criteria: consistent similarity between varieties; order of valuation; distance between valuations and difference between maximum and minimum value. We conclude that Rioplatense informants tend toward the negative pole when they evaluate the Andalusian variety in comparison to other varieties, both for the exact and general identification. This repeats when it is compared to Rioplatense, Castilian, Andean and Chilean varieties. However, certain positive attributes stand out: fun, fast and beautiful. At the same time, the Andalusian variety is perceived as less friendly than the Rioplatense one, but more friendly than the Castilian one.
