Abstract

In the field of teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language (SFL), textbooks and teaching materials often provide learners with language samples characterized by a lack of naturalness. We propose the use of a prototypical model of core competence, obtained from the analysis of communicative situations based on real corpora and the comparison of the same type of work with native and non-native speakers. The specific objective is the study of communication strategies related to pauses and self-correction in native and non-native speech, in order to analyse the repair strategies related to language processing
