Abstract

This article describes the linguistic phenomena -from the lexicographical viewpoint- of the specialized language used by fishermen of the State of Sonora. By applying a questionnaire with more than 390 questions and by using the "words and things" method, the fishermen's vocabularies from eleven Sonora towns, deep sea ports and camps, are thoroughly explored and compared to each other in order to find the real extent and vitality of each of the "sea" words. Likewise, and with the same objectives, the list obtained is compared to other places in Mexico, America and Spain. The Sonora's patrimonial vocabulary can be glimpsed in the light of the contrasts between this vocabulary and the other forms used by fishermen around the immense Hispanic world. From the numerous denominations characteristic of the fishing activity, and since it's a sample, only nine focuses of attention are analyzed: the sea, meteorology, the stars, geomorphology, navigation and maneuvers, rigging, vessels and shipbuilding industry, nets, and trade.
