description The aim of this analysis is to compare and contrast two sets of newspaper opinion articles, one in English and one in Spanish, in order to find signs of cultural differences between the two sets. The corpus was analyzed from the Genre Analysis Theory drawing from BTU methodology and Systemic Functional Analysis. The results show that there is no significant difference among the two groups in terms of move and step segmentation, as well as of rhetorical and linguistic differences. However, we can perceive slight variation of move and step segmentation among the Spanish group as opposed to the English one. Also, while rhetorical and linguistic features seem to be predominantly homogeneous, there seems to be variation according to the register of the newspaper and of the writer in particular, as it has been mentioned in previous studies. This appreciation should be further analyzed in subsequent studies, perhaps singling out aspects to be analyzed in isolation and in greater detail than was the scope of the present work.
