Abstract English Direkt Profil is an automatic analyzer oftexts written in French as a second lan-guage. Its objective is to produce an eval-uation of the developmental stage of stu-dents under the form of a grammaticallearner profile. Direkt Profil carries outa sentence analysis based on developmen-tal sequences, i.e. local morphosyntacticphenomena linked to a development in theacquisition of French.The paper presents the corpus that we useto develop the system and briefly, the de-velopmental sequences. Then, it describesthe annotation that we have defined, theparser, and the user interface. We con-clude by the results obtained so far: on thetest corpus the systems obtains a recall of83% and a precision of 83%.
