CARDENAS, OFELIA AMANDA. Identity of the People from Boyacá, Carranguera Music. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2020, n.35, pp.111-130. ISSN 0121-053X.  https://doi.org/10.19053/0121053x.n35.2020.10031.

The objective of this research article is to explain the identity features of the people from Boyaca, such as typical dress, dialect, regional products, and some customs, from a sociolinguistic analysis of the lyrics of the representative songs of Jorge Velosa. In this paper, the song "I am also Boyaco1" is taken as a specific case study. Initially, the relationship between language, culture, and identity is succinctly presented; later the generalities of carranguera music and its main exhibitor Jorge Velosa are exhibited; it concludes with a partial analysis of a sociophonetic, sociogrammatical, sociolexical and sociocultural type of the studied song.

Keywords : sociolinguistics; identity; carranguera music.
