Nombres de intoxicaciones con "-ismo": el origen de un patrón lexicogenésico en el siglo XIX

In this paper, we study the names of intoxications ending in -ismo in Spanish in order to determine whether we are facing a lexicogenetic pattern imported from a different language (concretely, French). For this purpose, we analyse thoroughly the documentation of all the selected words, as well as the possible sources of the texts in which they are located, taking also into account their representation in the history of the Spanish dictionaries. As a result of all the above, we formulate new etymological proposals for a number of these terms, which are often presented in lexicography as derivatives originated in Spanish.
