Resumo

Los corpus de estudiantes constituyen una fuente rica de datos reales producidos genuinamente por alumnos en una lengua dada. De hecho, los docentes de lenguas extranjeras (LE) o de segundas lenguas (L2) pueden disponer de una gran fuente de producciones, ya sean escritas u orales, para analizar ciertos patrones lingüísticos de los estudiantes. En este artículo, somos conscientes de esta situación y prestaremos atención a estructuras que se suelen utilizar de forma errónea: el uso, o ausencia, del verbo be en ciertas estructuras en combinación con born y agree. El corpus de estudiantes compilado para este estudio está formado por producciones escritas de estudiantes universitarios cuya lengua materna es española y que están matriculados en asignaturas no lingüísticas impartidas en inglés como medio de instrucción. Por tanto, algunos casos de traducción literal, muy cercana a los términos en cuestión en español, se describirán en este estudio
