| Rezumat: | The “albur” and the “refrán” are two linguistic modes of the Spanish language popularly yet marginally used throughout Mexico that serve to construct alternative identities, understandings and a sense of community. The “albur”, a phrase of humouristic sexual or eschatological connotations in double meaning, involves a similar dialogic response. The “refrán”, which is a citation of traditional oral wisdom, often in rhyme, defines the learned and experienced character of its utterer. Both forms are tropes on which popular culture is built and defined on individual, group, class and national levels, subverting the established norms and meanings of the (imposed) Spanish language and continuous crises. As the imagination is cultivated, polysemic understandings are created and identity is strengthened. |
