In this interview, the questions formulated and oriented to the preservation of the Spanish language in Latin America were resolved. In principle, three fundamental themes derived from this proposal were addressed: writing, research and advertising. With the first topic, the function of the regulations, dictionaries and manuals produced by the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) was discerned. His intervention is substantial, since it directs the reader and the academic to perfect their language, so that they do not relapse into grammatical errors. The second item covers research. This was highlighted because it facilitates the interaction of the speakers of the Castilian language with the methodologies that are established to configure a totemic language. Furthermore, it is assumed that the only way to disseminate and contribute to this knowledge would be through scientific publications. The third variant consists of how this concern about the Spanish language is inserted in the advertising spheres. This is essential due to its limited audience and the lack of support for governments. Faced with this, I considered that Dr. Ignacio Bosque Muñoz was the ideal person to confront this reality about Spanish. Its important role in the RAE and the Association of Academies of the Spanish Language (ASALE) deserves it, as well as its publications oriented to the study of the language with grammatical approaches. With their interaction, the volition of this work will be evidenced with the explanation of the current panorama of the language and its preservation, such as when one wishes to understand Don Quixote, understand the grammatical and lexical contributions of the RAE and the ASALE or question the proliferation of the language from the media. The auscultation of these oscillations will be the contribution of this interview.
