Il Vocabolario del romanesco contemporaneo, una nuova realtà tra i dizionari dialettali
Abstract
This article examines the Vocabolario del romanesco contemporaneo, edited by Paolo D’Achille and Claudio Giovanardi (2023). It explores the structure of the headwords, the characteristics of the lemmary, and the approach to incorporating literary examples. Special attention is given to the inclusion of neologisms and archaic terms that remain familiar to speakers. The innovative influence of youth language is also highlighted. In addition to dialect words, the vocabulary features terms used in Rome with unique meanings distinct from their standard Italian counterparts.
