Hispanic Social Place Names of Manila: Estudios de Lingüística Aplicada
Hispanic Social Place Names of Manila. My last article at Estudios de Lingüística Aplicada.
Joven-Romero, M.A. (2022). Hispanic Social Place Names of Manila. Estudios de Lingüísica Aplicada, 74.
Place names mirror the social history of a territory, the daily life, and the relations of its settlers. Hispanic historical social place names in Manila depict the urban society during the colonial period. In the following pages, I gather and explain the living Hispanic toponyms coined before the 1945 Manila battle and discuss the different activities, peoples, and economic classes they depict. I conclude that different areas were prone to administrative, financial, leisure, military, nonprofit, rural, transport, and working-class activities: the distance to Intramuros, the core of the historical city, witnessed their relevance.

Hispanic Geographical Place Names of Metro Manila: Anuari de Filologia, Estudis de Lingüística
Hispanic Geographical Place Names of Metro Manila. My last article at Anuari de Filologia.
Joven-Romero, M.A. (2021). Hispanic Geographical Place Names of Metro Manila. Anuari de Filologia: Estudis de Lingüística, 11, 17-44.
Place names print the physical characteristics of the territory they name and Hispanic geographical place names in Metro Manila depict the geography of the region. In the following pages, I extract and explain the living Hispanic geographical toponyms in Metro Manila, and I discuss the different physical features they describe according to these categories: Body of Water, Farming, Fluvial, Land, Sea, Underground, Urban, Vegetation. I conclude that items responding to different categories follow specific space patterns according to the physical characteristics of the territory and the Spanish colonial activity
