Los “verdaderos amigos” para los estudiantes hispanohablantes en el aprendizaje de léxico alemán

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to educate the Spanish students that they may develop specific strategies to learn German words. These strate- gies are based on recognising in the target language words with a similar form and meaning to the words that the subject knows. The students sometimes should make a certain effort to learn irrecognizable words under slight dis- guises. The researchers could help to develop this strategy by providing an em- pirical and etymological study based on the two vocabularies.The similar words resulting from this contrastive study will be the “true friends” for the student.
