Then, to analyze a lexical group documented there (names of precious and semiprecious stones) in order to deepen knowledge of the Spanish lexicon of the time. Finally, to encourage all interested in the history of Spanish lexicon to discover the sources hitherto investigated for being them a very promising source of new linguistic findings.}, doi = {10.4467/20843917RC.15.004.4001}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/romanica-cracoviensia/article/los-documentos-de-utilidad-como-fuente-linguistica-los-nombres-de-piedras-preciosas-y-semipreciosas-en-el-waare-lexico-1797} }
