I'm not sure what you mean by "an article." Your questions are "¿Hay regionalismos? ¿Cuáles son?" Which translates to "Are there regionalisms? What are they?

It sounds like an assignment to provide an essay on the topic.

Well, in English it's "regionalism" and the following are the definitions of that. Does this make your assignment clearer...in answering whether there are regionalisms?

  1. a. Political division of an area into partially autonomous regions. b. Advocacy of such a political system.

    1. Loyalty to the interests of a particular region.
    2. A feature, such as an expression, a pronunciation, or a custom, that is characteristic of a geographic area.
    3. The use of regional characteristics, as of locale, custom, or speech, in literature or art.
    4. A policy whereby the interests of a nation in world affairs are defined in terms of particular countries or regions.

So, what would this have to do with an article then?
