Resumo

In this paper we aim to describe the values of the Spanish discourse marker ¿no?, whose most prominent This contribution falls within the scope of corpus linguistics applied to language teaching and has as its main purpose is to show the possibilities of exploiting the ESLORA corpus (https://eslora.usc.es/) as a resource for research in the area of Spanish as a second/foreign language. The exploitation sample is the result of the initial stage of a collaborative project carried out jointly by teachers of Spanish as a second/foreign language and Spanish language researchers; it focusses on the expression of the future in Spanish as one of the areas of difficulty in the teaching of Spanish as a second/foreign language. This research project was organized in several phases: the first one consisted of the identification of the area of study; in the second attention was paid to the descriptions of the grammar content selected in some pedagogical grammars and  Spanish as a second/foreign language handbooks as well as in in the PCIC (2006); t the analysis of the data provided by ESLORA constituted the third phase of this project, this allowed us to verify and confirm the values attributed to the morphological future in the literature and its occurrence with the periphrastic future (ir a + infinitive) to express prospective meanings.
