Studerus, Lenard H. – Hispania, 1978
Examines a family of Spanish compounds formed by the combination of a third-person singular verb form with a following noun, and attempts to show the semantic categories of such compounds. It is argued that speakers of Spanish intuitively categorize unfamiliar "guarda" compounds according to their existing repertoires. (EJS)

Lujan, Marta – Hispania, 1975
Contradicts Pablo Jordan's theory that certain "se" constructions in Spanish are neither passive nor reflexive. It is claimed that syntactic evidence reveals two types of impersonal structures, the impersonal active and the passive reflexive. (Text is in Spanish.) (CK)
