El español y sus confines. Diversidad y uniformidad

Abstract

In this article we analyze the current situation of Spanish language in the world and its ancient “boundaries”, which are at the same time simple and structured, regular and variable, uniform and different. And while the number of people speaking Spanish increases every day, Spanish language keeps on maintaining its compactness that allows it to include variations and varieties that – thanks also to the 22 Reales Academias of Spanish Language – won‟t flake its homogeneity.
