The TV presenter spoke out against inclusive language, saying, “I’m not saying everything because she’s not inside the language academy.” This comment sparked controversy in the social networks that once again put on the table The discussion about the use or non-use of these types of terms.
What does RAE say about using an inclusive language?
And the Royal Spanish Academy spoke about this kind of language, it was in July of last year when it published a statement on social networking sites rejecting the use of the letter “e” in language considered “alien to Spanish morphology, as well as unnecessary.”
