El coloquialismo marrón y las estructuras verbo + marrón: análisis semántico-pragmático y aplicación al aula de ELE

Due to the fact that teaching colloquial expressions has become a real need in SFL classrooms, in this paper a semantic and pragmatic analysis is carried out about the colloquial expression marrón based in its coappearances in the corpus CORPES XXI. This corpus has been chosen since the aim is to study real and present-day examples of that colloquial expression in Mainland Spain. To that end, a quantitative methodology is used by means of a corpus of 155 co-appearances of the Spanish term marrón used as a colloquial expression and its derived expressions that present the structure (verb + marrón) in order to know the most frequent co-appearances of such word so that these examples can be taught in the SFL classroom. Once the quantitative study has been established, the semantic and pragmatic analysis are carried out of the colloquial expression marrón.
