WELCOME
Welcome to the ENEIDA Project, whose primary aim is to identify the writing obstacles of Spanish scholars when writing in English (WOEs) for academic publication, specifically those that may be due to transfer from their writing practices in Spanish. Proposed by Ana I. Moreno, this significant initiative brought together researchers from nine institutions, forming the first ENEIDA Team.
After securing a competitive research project under the National Plan for Research, Development and Innovation (Ref.: FFI2009-08336/FILO, 2010-mid 2014), the first ENEIDA team formalised their collaborations by setting up the ENEIDA Research Group at the Universidad de León, Spain. This project, titled “Rhetorical Strategies to Get Published in International Journals from a Spanish-English Intercultural Perspective (I),” was structured into three phases:
-
Needs Analysis regarding English and Spanish for Research Publication Purposes (ERPP and SRPP)
-
Cross-cultural studies of ERPP and SRPP
-
Intercultural Studies of ERPP as a language used by Spanish researchers to publish their research internationally
The funding received from the former Ministry of Science and Innovation allowed the team to achieve outstanding results and share them widely both nationally and internationally.
Two crucial milestones, the ENEIDA Questionnaire and the EXEMPRAES Corpus, can be accessed by clicking on the logos below. To find out more about the ENEIDA Project and team, please explore the tabs at the top of the screen.
