    De la marea granate a los "gilets jaunes": humánimos fraseológicos cromáticos.
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2019) Díaz Rodríguez, Cristian
    In this paper, we propose a study of Spanish and French phraseological units that denominate human entities (humanyms) whose structure follows this pattern: Noun + Chromatic Adjective: gilet jaune, casques bleus, camisas azules, marea granate. Considering the theories about phraseological meaning explicative model, proposed by L. Timofeeva (2008, 2012), and basing our analysis on the iconic models formulated by E. M. Iñesta and A. Pamies (2002), we propose a series of criteria that will permit to distinguish between nominal phraseological units used to qualify humans (idioms) and those that, on the contrary, create stable classes of referents (phraseological compounds). We will also analyze the role played by chromatic adjectives as a vector to carry the ethnocultural and idiosyncratic trace of the community of speakers that have created all these phraseological humanyms.
