Abstract
The influence of Argentine Spanish on the lexicon of Chilean Spanish is examined in this article. Its content is presented via two axes: the application of the sociolinguistic concept of hidden prestige, for the purpose of describing the value that the speaker of Chilean Spanish gives to the dialect spoken in Argentina; and what the author calls asymmetrical permeability with respect to the relationship that is created between the two dialects. It is proposed that the tendency towards the Argentinization of the culture generally, and particularly of the language, will continue and tend to become consolidated.
