Diseño teórico y metodológico del Corpus de Aprendientes Chinos de Español

This paper deals with corpora of learners and is part of a doctoral research entitled Attenuation in the written expression and interaction of Chinese learners of Spanish, whose objective (to characterize the use of attenuation in the written production of these learners) and the lack of data to achieve it, leads to the design of a corpora of learners, a source of reliable empirical data for the analysis of the characteristics of the interlanguage of these learners. Starting from the idea that a corpus always responds to a previous design, this work pursues the theoretical and methodological design of a computerized corpora, representative of the oral and written variants of Spanish as a foreign and second language of Chinese learners, in order to have a database that allows us to carry out rigorous research on their interlanguage and identify the main difficulties in their learning, in order to design appropriate didactic strategies to solve them. The Dialectical-Materialist Method is assumed as the general method of sciences and philosophical support, and theoretical and empirical methods are used, namely, historical-logical, analysis-synthesis, systemic-structural, documentary analysis and modeling. The main results show the theoretical systematization on linguistics of corpora and corpora of learners and, from it, the theoretical and methodological design of a specialized, sample and representative, multilingual, mixed, open and transversal-oriented corpus; in addition, the conception of three stages for the creation of Corpora of Chinese Learners of Spanish: design, data collection and construction. Este trabalho trata do corpus de aprendizes e faz parte de uma pesquisa de doutorado intitulada Atenuação na expressão e interação escrita de estudantes chineses de espanhol, cujo objetivo (caracterizar o uso da atenuação na produção escrita desses estudantes) e a falta de de dados que permite a conformidade, leva ao desenho de um corpus de alunos, uma fonte de dados empíricos confiável para a análise das características interlínguas desses alunos. Partindo da ideia de que um corpus responde sempre a um desenho prévio, este trabalho teve como objectivo conceber teórica e metodologicamente um corpus informatizado, representativo das variantes orais e escritas do espanhol como língua estrangeira e segunda de estudantes chineses, para ter uma base de dados que permite pesquisar rigorosamente a sua interlíngua e identificar as principais dificuldades na sua ap
