Abstract

Space is the great forgotten language studies, as most of the discussions about the structure of language and its use would not have paid attention to the material world in which communicative interactions occur and how languages structure the space hence the relevance of their study on oral narratives of the district Santiago Los Hoyos. This paper aims to analyze and characterize their employment in different parts that make up the conversational stories produced by speakers of a neighborhood in the city of Santiago de Cuba, a mixture of history, culture and folklore, while one of the richest sites as the treasury of traditions jealously guarded by the city.
