In the following pages, I propose to give an insight into the possible connections that exist between language and economics, in order to unravel the entanglements that operate in the encounter between both disciplines, so that it will be possible to clarify why there is such a significant relationship between the way the economy functions and the role that language plays in it, especially from the problem of exchange as a meeting point between both of them. Beginning with an analysis of Marx's problem of value, we will unravel the encounter, the similarities and differences that it is possible to establish between language and economics, trying to answer the following questions: Does the theory of value work in the way Marx conceived it in a similar way to linguistic exchange? Did Marx, in his Critique of Political Economy, think about the language-economy relation? What role does translation play in all of this? As a second moment, we analyze the problem of circulation and exchange as fundamental moments in the encounter between language and economy, based on two narratives that have the figure of the coin as their central axis. On the one hand, the case of "Counterfeit Money" by Baudelaire and, on the other hand, "The Zahir" by Borges. In both writings it is possible to problematize the 'language-economy' relationship, where circulation as a process of exchange that can be interrupted is questioned. Do Borges and Baudelaire present to us a possibility of thinking about an interruption of the processes of circulation of capital, as Marx conceived it?
