Research Abstract

The purpose of the research is to develop an analyzer capable of automatically detect grammatical errors in Spanish texts written by Japanese learners. To do that, we have manually annotated with error information a10,000 words corpus and have written a set of rules for automatic agreement error detection, using the Constraint Grammar formalism. With the evaluation of the analyzer and the annotated corpus we have confirmed that the detection of number agreement errors requires a deeper linguistic analysis of the texts than gender agreement errors, since number agreement errors occur with more frequency at the clause level than at the phrase level as the language proficiency level improves.
