This paper examines the alternation forms between the 2nd person treatment —tú, usted, sumercé and vos— when it comes to address a single interlocutor in Bogotá, Colombia. Whilst a case vaguely described in the literature it is though quite frequent and systematic in the Spanish of Bogotá. Based on oral data (fragments of spontaneous conversations and direct observations) plus the information provided by both personal impression along with sociolinguistic questionnaires and the social media, we describe three types of pronominal alternation —1. Intra-verb (type I), 2. Intra-sentence (type II) and 3. Extra-sentence (type III)—. Our aims fall on qualitatively determine of the linguistic, social and pragmatics parameters which facilitate these constructions.
