Résumé

Explaining the grammatical structures that characterize the Galician-Portuguese language system to university students of L2 Galician involves certain difficulties, both in terms of contact with Spanish and due to its nature as a L2. We propose here an activity in which students engage in a process of practical reflection on real examples of the language. The study will focus in particular on the absence of the preposition a with the direct object (DO), using for this purpose a corpus of traditional Galician popular songs, and following the recommendations of the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) model. Within this theoretical and practical approach students will also acquire knowledge of Galician culture and history through information found in the the anonymous poetry of the songbook itself.
