Article Description

Etymological information about 'raw foreign words' in the new edition of the DRAE. In this paper I undertake a critical review of the treatment provided in the 23rd edition of the DRAE (2014) of the etymological information about 'raw foreign words', i.e. those words which characteristically do not follow the graphic-phonic rules of Spanish, the lemmas of which are shown in italics in the academic dictionary. Therefore, I analyze what happens with the etymological parenthesis in 344 lemmas, comparing them, where possible, with the previous edition of DRAE and the preview of the 23rd edition. My aim is to observe the criteria applied by the RAE in respect of this type of information -in addition to the parameters set out in the preamble to the DRAE 2014-and if a consistent treatment is achieved. Moreover, I assess whether the data that the Real Academia offers are appropriate.
