MCERL y vocabulario receptivo de estudiantes españoles de Francés como Lengua Extranjera

Abstract

Research on the receptive vocabulary of languages learners highlights his relationship with the general competence in languages. In this line, some studies have been carried out in order to associate the size of the vocabulary and the levels of the Common European Framework (CEFRL). We present the results of a research developed with French students in an Official School of Languages, with the double objective of determining the size of their receptive vocabulary and establishing a correspondence with the levels of the CEFRL. We conclude that the vocabulary is an indicator of the level of competence, and that obtaining a certain level is dependent on the size of the vocabulary.
