Description
Summary:Analysis of a pilot survey conducted during the initial studies in a doctoral program. The project has been proposed with academic and educational purposes, aiming to analyse the difficulties that occur in written interlan guage of Spanish students who are native speakers of the Brazilian variant of Portuguese in an undergraduation course in Spanish Studies. The theoretical basis of the study is Contrastive Linguistics (CL), based on models of Error Analysis (EA) and Interlanguage Analysis (IA). In the pilot survey, a group of students of the last semester of the course were asked to produce three written texts. The texts were collected in the classroom, during the teaching training in the first semester of 2011. This paper presents the preliminary analysis of the data. The results of the study are expected to provide a vision of the written interlanguage produced by these students and an analysis of the points observed.
