Subjetivización versus objetivización mediante el cambio de códigos inglés/español en la letra de una canción de bachata actual
Focusing on code switching in the Spanish-English lyrics ofbachatasongs, we find that speakers/singers use code switching stylistically to achieve the effect of subjectification. According to Bürki (2003: 91), subjectification, in contrast to objectification, occurs when speakers achieve a degree of increased or decreased emotional involvement by switching from one language to another. In other words, a degree of identification with or distance from may be indexed and brought about by an expressive code switch. These types of switches are investigated here.
