An Environment for Learner Corpus Research and Error Analysis: The Study of Determiner Errors in Basque

This article presents an environment developed for Learner Corpus Research and Error Analysis which makes it possible to deal with language errors from different points of view and with several aims. In the field of Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL), our objective is to gain a better understanding of the language learning process. In the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP), we work on the development of applications that will help both language learners and teachers in their learning/teaching processes. Using this environment, several studies and experiments on error analysis have been carried out, and thanks to an in-depth study on determiner-related errors in Basque, some contributions in the above mentioned fields of research have been made.
