\"Spanish<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Spanish is not a foreign language in Texas. Many Texans speak Spanish on a regular basis at home, at work, and with friends and neighbors. What makes Spanish spoken in Texas different from the Spanish spoken in other parts of the world is that most Spanish-speaking Texans also speak English.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of the Spanish in Texas project is to profile Spanish as it is spoken throughout Texas today and to provide open learning tools that allow students, teachers, and the general public to explore Spanish language variation. A central goal of the project is to encourage users to view local varieties of Spanish and their speakers as important resources for learning about language and culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Spanish in Texas Corpus<\/a> is a pedagogically useful corpus of Spanish and bilingual Spanish-English speech samples culled from interviews and conversations among speakers of diverse personal profiles and regional origins throughout Texas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Video clips from the corpus are available on the SpinTX Video Archive<\/a> and accompanied by instructional materials for specific levels (elementary, middle school, high school, and college) for use in mainstream Spanish language classrooms and dual-language immersion programs, as well as in Social Studies and Language Arts curricula. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A pedagogical reference grammar<\/a> using examples from the Corpus is also available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"inline_featured_image":false},"grant":[7,55],"class_list":["post-87","project","type-project","status-publish","hentry","grant-lrc","grant-lrc-2010"],"acf":{"project_directors":[{"project_director_name":"Almeida Jacqueline Toribio","project_director_link":""},{"project_director_name":"Barbara E.
