LA DINáMICA DE LA ALTERNANCIA ENTRE Tú, VOS Y USTED EN MEDELLíN (COLOMBIA) DESDE LA TEORíA DE LA ACOMODACIóN COMUNICATIVAKeywords: pronominal alternation, medellin (colombia), accommodation, convergence. Abstract: in this article, we present some cases in which we observe the pronominal alternation on the medellin speakers, based on the communication accommodation theory and specially related to the notion of convergence. the speakers of the medellin community practice the convergence strategy throught the ajustement to the pronominal treatment used by their speaker when they interact with: 1) the foreigners not spanish speakers; 2) the spanish speakers not using "vos"; 3) the colombians not using "vos"; 4) the inhabitants coming from another antioquia zone and 5) the persons from medellin belonging to a different socio-economical status.
