However, while phonological and grammatical similarities have been the focus of most of these studies, the investigation of semantic patterns has so far played only a minor role. This work takes up the problem of the similarity and possible diffusion of features across the languages of the Chaco through the identification and analysis of shared lexico-semantic patterns in the ethnobiological vocabulary of sixteen languages of the region. Our research has been carried out with the assistance of specific annotation and data processing techniques using the EDICTORprogram, which allows, unlike classical methods, to work with a large corpus of digitally available data. The preliminary results of the analysis show a great similarity in the lexical motivation of the analyzed lexemes, mainly through formal patterns such as polysemy, derivation and composition, and semantic relations such as metaphor and metonymy}}, journal = {{LIAMES: L{\'\i}nguas Ind{\'\i}genas Americanas}}, volume = {22}, eid = {e022005}, }
