Abstract
En la presente tesis, enmarcada en la Teoría comunicativa de la terminología (Cabré 1999), se aborda el estudio de un tipo de variación terminológica concreto, la variación denominativa, en relación con el canal de comunicación, un parámetro aún no explorado como causa de variación terminológica. La hipótesis general de partida es que el canal comunicativo condiciona la variación presente en los textos especializados escritos y orales; mientras que las hipótesis específicas sostienen que lo hace en tres planos diferentes: cuantitativo, formal y discursivo-textual. Para verificar las hipótesis planteadas se confecciona y analiza un corpus de textos especializados escritos y orales sobre lingüística. Los resultados obtenidos permiten establecer en cada plano de análisis lo siguiente: a) el canal de comunicación repercute en la cantidad de variación de los textos especializados cuando se contempla el género textual y los textos presentan condiciones de producción diferentes (por ejemplo mayor o menor tiempo para exponer el discurso o contacto directo con la audiencia); b) las denominaciones escritas y orales presentan especificidades según el modo de producción (las denominaciones escritas suelen ser más lexicalizadas que las orales, de carácter analítico, aunque también se registran denominaciones escritas complejas no lexicalizadas a causa de su elevado grado de elaboración) y c) la variación cumple una función diferente en los textos especializados escritos y orales: la misma suele ser prioritariamente estilística en los textos escritos, para lograr un discurso elaborado, y cognitiva en los textos orales, para facilitar al receptor la comprensión de los conceptos.
This work, theoretically framed in the Communicative Theory of Terminology (Cabré 1999), aims to study a specific type of terminological variation known as denominative variation in relation to the communicative channel (oral / written), a parameter which has not yet been studied as a cause of term variation. The general hypothesis claims that the variation found in oral and written specialized texts is influenced by the communication channel, while the specific hypotheses state that this influence can be observed at the quantitative, formal and textual-discursive level. In order to verify the hypotheses a corpus of specialized oral and written texts on linguistics has been compiled and analyzed. The results show a) that the communicative channel influences the degree of variation present in written and oral texts according to their genre and production circumstances (such as the amount of time to deliver the talk and the level of speaker-audience interaction); b) that oral and written denominative forms show differences related to their production mode (written denominations tend to have a higher degree of lexicalization than oral denominations, but non-lexicalized long written denominations which reflect the elaboration characteristic of written language have also been found); and finally, c) that terminological variation in written and oral texts tends to have different functions: in written texts variation is used primarily for stylistic purposes, while in oral texts variation serves a cognitive purpose to help listeners understand the concepts being explained.
