Kyung-Hee Kim. 2003. Lexical Contact between Spanish and Catalan. Studies in Modern Grammar 31, 173-187. The primary purpose of this paper is to show how Spanish and Catalan exchange their lexical influences. Through the history, Spanish has always dominated Catalan. We intend to take lexical evidences to prove the their historial relation and to predict their future. Recently Catalan is supported by political and economical powers, but what we observe in linguistic aspects is that the natural trend is destined for the simplification of Catalan lexical system, adopting it to that of Spanish. We also show the bilingual speakers` attitude in selecting lexical forms.
