PEQUENAS PALAVRAS, GRANDES PROBLEMAS

Abstract

This paper deals with some reading difficulties in Spanish regarding the use of some linguistic elements so small they can pass unnoticed by a less experienced or for those that do not know the language. These are problems that go beyond the lexical differences between nouns of Spanish and Portuguese or even idioms and false cognates, already well known by teachers. From the perspective of interactive teaching tools in languages, we show how discourse markers, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns and verbs can turn into big problems for the student during the learning process.
