Ante la contradicción del prolífico uso por parte de hispanohablantes de la palabra “haiga”, en tanto flexión del verbo “haber”, y su falta de registro lexicográfico en el diccionario de la Real Academia Española, esta breve investigación busca aclarar su estatus como arcaísmo, americanismo o voz desprestigiada. Con tal fin, se indagó la aparición de esta palabra en el Corpus del Nuevo Diccionario Histórico del Español, demostrando la difusión de la palabra a partir del siglo XVII y especialmente, pero no de forma excluyente, en América; con un uso cada vez más frecuente a lo largo del tiempo. Es aquí donde cobra importancia la variable de prestigio como condicionante en el reconocimiento de las diferentes hablas, especialmente en un escenario donde la aceptación del policentrismo de la lengua española contrasta con una normativa ibérica imperante. Por último, se hace un recorrido por diversos autores y sus nociones de “arcaísmo” para delimitar su alcance respecto de esta palabra y establecer su relación con el criterio de prestigio, sin buscar arribar a conclusiones concretas, sino como punto de partida para el cuestionamiento de los fenómenos lingüísticos de similar naturaleza.

In view of the contradiction of the prolific use by Spanish speakers of the word "haiga", as an inflection of the verb "haber", and its lack of lexicographic record in the dictionary of the Real Academia Española, this brief research seeks to clarify its status as an archaism, Americanism or discredited voice. To this end, the appearance of this word in the Corpus of the New Historical Dictionary of Spanish was investigated, demonstrating the diffusion of the word from the seventeenth century and especially, but not exclusively, in America; with an increasingly frequent use over time. It is here where the variable of prestige becomes important as a conditioning factor in the recognition of different speeches, especially in a scenario where the acceptance of the polycentrism of the Spanish language contrasts with a prevailing Iberian norm. Finally, a survey is made of various authors and their notions of "archaism" in order to delimit its scope with respect to this word and to establish its relationship with the criterion of prestige, without seeking to arrive at concrete conclusions, but as a starting point for the questioning of linguistic phenomena of a similar nature. |
