Elaboración de un corpus cacográfico desde la disponibilidad léxica en estudiantes sevillanos. Un análisis para la enseñanza de la lengua

The lexical availability arose with a predominantly didactic character: the teaching of a language. However, most research studies do not include among their objectives the study of the orthographic situation of the population studied. In this article, we part from a review of the different investigations of lexical availability that have paid attention to the orthographic aspects –its patterns of analysis and cataloguing– to propose a common procedure that allows future diatopic comparisons. After that, a detailed analysis of the orthographical situation is carried out from a sample of 400 pre-university students that will constitute the cacographic corpus of the most frequent errors of these users. This corpus will be categorized around four categories –accentuation, letters, morphosyntax and lexicon– and forty subcategories. This detailed analysis of spelling errors will be very useful in the field of language teaching in order to plan and develop materials, which could help solving orthographical problems presented by the users and learners of Spanish, both as a mother tongue and as a foreign language.
