CEDEL2 is a large-scale, multi-L1learner corpus of L2 Spanishwhichcontains written productions from learners at all proficiency levelsas well as 6 native control subcorpora (total size: over 1,100,000 words from over 4,000 participants).CEDEL2 follows strict corpusdesign criteria (Sinclair, 2005)andlearner corpusdesign recommendations (Tracy-Ventura & Paquot, 2021a).In its current version (CEDEL2 v. 2), itsPortuguese component includes an L1 Portuguese -L2 Spanish subcorpus,with 21,662 words written by 164 participants, and anL1 Portuguese native subcorpus, with 3,500 words from 16 L1 speakers of European Portuguese.Thanks to theirdesign features (e.g., same design across subcorpora, inclusion of metadata about SLA-relevant variables, dual native control subcorpora) and freelyavailable web interface, CEDEL2 and its Portuguese subcorporaallow researchersto investigate a wide range of topics in SLA.
