Il capitolo presenta la condizione delle varietà ladine nei loro processi di «ausbauizzazione»; la posizione degli idiomi viene discussa secondo linee interpretative che vanno dalla loro posizione nello spazio comunicativo delle comunità alla costruzione di varietà graficamente e linguisticamente definite, alla proposta di una eventuale lingua tetto unificata, alla discussione della produzione lessicografica in quanto motore della costruzione linguistica.

l capitolo presenta la situazione giuridica e statutaria della comunità ladina e le iniziative pubbliche di pianificazione linguistica. Dopo un breve paragrafo introduttivo, si tratta dello status planning del ladino in ambito amministrativo, nella scuola, nella toponomastica e nei media; il paragrafo successivo fa cenno alle attività istituzionali di promozione della lingua e della cultura ladina attraverso i centri di tutela istituzionali.

– The paper discusses the linguistic concerns of people in mobility in order to set out a better education policy that can take into account the real conditions in which the communication processes take place. Data and suggestion come from a large survey in Europe, fp7 European project MIME (Mobility and Integration in a Multilingual Europe). With the aid of an interpretive framework, different typologies of mobility are provided, to indicate the real needs of mobile people and the – desired or unwanted – outcomes that can be hence previewed. Riassunto – L’articolo discute le reali condizioni linguistiche delle persone in mobilità, al fine aiutare a definire più avanzate politiche educative che possano tener conto della effettiva complessità che caratterizza i processi di comunicazione. Dati e suggerimenti provengono da un’ampia indagine in Europa, il progetto europeo 7 MIME (Mobilità e integrazione in un’Europa multilingue). Attraverso l’analisi un framework interpretativo ai mostrano diverse tipologie di mobilità utili a inquadrare i reali bisogni linguistici delle persone e i risultati, desiderati o indesiderati, che possono essere previsti.

L’objectif de cet article est de montrer la diffusion des dénominations de « taupe » dans le domaine linguistique roman. L’approche méthodologique est principalement de type onomasiologique, mais les parentés étymologiques formelles sont aussi prises en considération. Le résultat le plus remarquable de la recherche est la mise en évidence du rapport dialectique au niveau diatopique entre les aboutissements modernes d’une forme centrale prélatine *darb et les formes périphériques abouties du latin rurale (ou des langues italiques anciennes)

The paper focuses on the geolinguistic treatment of demographic data, and more specifically of data elicited in multilingual settings. After establishing the basis of this chapter by briefly situating and differentiating geolinguistics and demolinguistics as subdisciplines of linguistics, we turn to a discussion of the kind of demolinguistic data on which a geolinguistic analysis is based and a brief presentation of the instruments (censuses, polls, and surveys) that are commonly used to gather such data. The final section homes in on the geolinguistic treatment of demolinguistic data by means of language maps.

In this paper we introduce to the public a new linguistic atlas, PALWaM (the Little Linguistic Atlas of the Southern Walser). The atlas is peculiar for several reasons. first of all, it focusses on the non contiguous territory of the Southern Walser, a group of Highest Alemannic dialects spoken in Piedmont and Aosta Valley, previously surveyed as part of the wider Sprachatlas der Deutschen Schweiz. Secondly, it is the product of the unprecedented collaboration of both an academic scientific committee and a working group made up of speakers of the local varieties and of members of the cultural associations on the territory. Finally, from a methodological point of view, the atlas places side by side a classical descriptive chart, an interpretative chart, an etymological-historical commentary and fragments of ethnographic interviews. These features make PALWaM a rather little, but very rich linguistic atlas.

The paper is a first approach to the weather proverbs in Dolomite Ladin, and stands as the first phase of possible research to come. The proverbs come from published sources, but have been controlled through field research, and are discussed under a romanistic, pragmatic and ethnolinguistic point of view.

In this chapter we report on an experiment set up to analyze lexical richness in the writing of 39 low-intermediate and intermediate learners of Italian assessed by means of a lexical frequency profiling method (Laufer-Nation, 1995). The study focuses on the relationship in L2 between lexical richness, operationalized in terms of lexical frequency, and the general proficiency level of the L2 learners, as measured by a C-test. In order to get a better insight into the development of lexical skills in L2, an additional analysis of the occurrence of collocations is carried out. Subsequently, the texts of the L2 learners are compared with the written output of 18 native speakers of Italian. Results show that, although a relationship between lexical richness and language proficiency in Italian L2 cannot not be demonstrated, there appears to be a number of differences in lexical richness and collocation use between L2 and L1 writers.
