In the present work, phonological, morphosyntactic and pragmatic phenomena are examined that allow us to sustain the persistence of the ideas of Rodolfo Lenz (1863-1938) in current contact linguistics. After years of some neglect or undervaluation in Hispanic linguistics, recent trends in contactology allow us to appreciate a visionary Lenz who, anticipating his time and against the current ideological climate in the Spanish-American environment, laid the foundations for the scientific study of Spanish in contact with Mapudungun and, more broadly, in contact with indigenous languages.
