Resumen
- Current language standardization processes must face the challenge of preserving variation, as speakers are very sensitive to their language identity. In the Catalan communicative space, two official agencies are in legal charge of language standardization: the Institut d'Estudis Catalans, whose target is all Catalan speakers and which applies a monocentric “compositionality”, and the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua, whose target is Valencian speakers only and which applies a “convergent pluricentricity.” This chapter will analyze the official texts of both academies studying how language variation is focused on applying the notions of compositionality, pluri-areality, and pluricentricity.
