Abstract
This study reports on an analysis of the development of three variable structures—the copula contrast, future-time expression and subject expression—by Korean-speaking learners of Spanish. We compare development of these structures by Korean-speaking learners to English-speaking learners and discuss contributions of this research to variationist Spanish SLA.
