Abstract

This article presents and reviews a new methodological resource for research in second language acquisition (SLA), CEDEL2 (Corpus Escrito del Español L2 ‘L2 Spanish Written Corpus’), and its free online search-engine interface (cedel2.learnercorpora.com). CEDEL2 is a multi-first-language corpus (Spanish, English, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian, French, Greek, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and Arabic) of L2 Spanish learners at all proficiency levels. It additionally contains several native control subcorpora (English, Portuguese, Greek, Japanese, and Arabic). Its latest release (version 2) holds material from around 4,400 speakers, which amounts to over 1,100,000 words. CEDEL2 follows strict corpus-design criteria (Sinclair, 2005) and L2 corpus-design recommendations (Tracy-Ventura and Paquot, 2021), and all subcorpora are equally designed to be fully contrastable, as recommended by Contrastive Interlanguage Analysis (Granger, 2015). Thanks to its design and web interface, CEDEL2 allows for complex searches which can be further narrowed down according to its SLA-motivated variables, e.g. first language (L1), proficiency level, self-reported proficiency level, age of onset to the L2, length of exposure to the L2, length of residence in a Spanish-speaking country, knowledge of other foreign languages, type of task, etc. These CEDEL2 features allow L2 researchers to address SLA questions and hypotheses.

CEDEL2：二语西班牙语习得研究在线语料库的设计、编译和网络界面

本文介绍并评述了一种新的研究第二语言习得的方法论资源CEDEL2（Corpus Escrito del Español L2‘L2西班牙语书面语料库’），cedel2是一个多母语语料库（西班牙语、英语、德语、荷兰语、葡萄牙语、意大利语、法语、希腊语、俄语、日语、汉语和阿拉伯语），面向所有熟练程度的二语西班牙语学习者。它还包含几个本地控制子公司（英语、葡萄牙语、希腊语、日语和阿拉伯语）。它的最新版本（第二版）收录了大约4400位演讲者的材料，总计超过1100000字。CEDEL2遵循严格的语料库设计标准（Sinclair，2005）和二语语料库设计建议（Tracy Ventura和Paquot，2021），并且所有子语料库都被同等地设计为完全可对比，正如对比中介语分析（Granger，2015）所建议的那样。由于其设计和网络界面，CEDEL2允许进行复杂的搜索，这些搜索可以根据其SLA驱动的变量进一步缩小范围，例如第一语言（L1）、熟练程度、自我报告的熟练程度、开始使用第二语言的年龄、接触第二语的时间、在西班牙语国家的居住时间、其他外语的知识、任务类型等。这些CEDEL2功能使L2研究人员能够解决SLA问题和假设。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
