dc.description.abstract	Most linguistic research on Zapotec-Spanish language contact has centered on Spanish influences such as loanwords borrowed into Zapotec. The current state of the field fails to acknowledge the structural effects that Zapotec has had on modern Oaxacan Spanish. This thesis analyzes variation and innovation found in a corpus of Zapotec and Spanish bilingual manuscripts. The goal in variationist language contact studies such as this one is to tell the stories of the sociolinguistic identities whose language use informed the local variant. The patterns that emerged because of Zapotec grammar's influence can be captured dynamically across time by way of data visualization and complementary present-day studies, both of which this thesis will begin and suggest.	en_US
