Violaciones de la norma culta de la lengua escrita española en trabajos especiales de grado con mención publicación

Abstract

This paper describes the violations of the standard of learned written Spanish language that, after copy editing, have been found in 11 of the 12 special degree works with publication awards of the graduate program in Reading and Writing Promotion at the Universidad de Los Andes, Táchira (Venezuela). Our revision was supported on the current standards: the Ortografía de la lengua española (2010). The results show that these special works contain recurrent errors, especially related to the use of capitalization, comas and periods. Therefore, it is convenient that this graduate program consider the participation of textual correction specialists in order for them to verify the unification of academic writing criteria before the publication of these works in institutional repositories.
