Abstract

The teaching of foreign languages has aroused a widespread interest among scholars of various subjects. In particular, the teaching of Spanish as L2 has been specifically developed over the years. Old textbooks have traditionally failed to give a suitable grounding by focusing too much on similarities between the two languages. In more recent times, as scholars have become more conscious of the challenges associated with related languages, they have begun comparing and contrasting. Moreover, the advent of new technologies continues to pose new challenges. One such challenge relates to teachers as “digital immigrants” and learners as “digital natives”. Furthermore, new language courses are designed with a plurilinguistic approach and do not take into account the linguistic interferences between Spanish and Italian. This article aims to investigate how modern teaching deals with grammar and syntax as major issues for Italian students aiming to improve their Spanish.
