«Castellanopatías: enfermedades del castellano de fin de siglo» is the linguistic essay by Sergio Lechuga Quijada, published by EUNSA in paperback.
The author starts from the idea of Spanish as a patient to diagnose anglicisms, filler words and incorrect uses of everyday speech. With popularising irony, he analyses cases such as «delante mío», the overuse of «ello» or football and television clichés, and proposes more precise alternatives, with a dictionary of what not to say.
Second edition (1997), in the NT Lengua y Literatura collection. It consists of 128 pages in Spanish.
Suitable for Spanish students and teachers, as well as readers interested in the correct use and evolution of the language.
