The CAES ‘Corpus de Aprendices de Español’ project
  • and

Abstract

This chapter aims to provide a general description of the ‘Corpus de Aprendices de Español’ (CAES). It starts by discussing the contributions of Corpus Linguistics to the study of language and it next explains the emergence of learner corpora. The next section is concerned with the origin and development of the CAES corpus from the beginning to its current state and explains in detail the general design, compilation method, text encoding and annotation plus the search tool accompanying the corpus. The last part presents the results of a study on false friends based on data extracted from the corpus. Several conclusions and reflections follow together with some suggestions for further research.
