“…For example, gender and number agreement in Italian was studied by Gudmundson (2012) in a functionalist framework. Data were drawn from Swedish university students, and the Italian corpus of oral language Lessico di frequenza dell'italiano parlato (LIP) (De Mauro et al, 1993) was used as a reference corpus. The results pointed at the importance of frequency of use and formal regularity.…”

This review provides an account of salient research topics in current Swedish research in the field of foreign language (FL) education, with the aim of making locally published work available outside Sweden. A corpus of work on English and other FLs published between 2012 and 2021 has been scrutinized. Focus has been placed on research conducted and disseminated in Sweden, in some cases adding international publications, in order to portray the work in a wider context. Research on FL learning, teaching, and assessment is reviewed in light of recent policy changes as well as a changing linguistic situation characterized by a plethora of languages spoken in society, among which Swedish as majority language and English as lingua franca share indisputable sovereignty, but where a newly-born interest in the role of other background languages than Swedish can be discerned. The study ends with a discussion of trends observed in the reviewed material and considerations in view of future research.

“…For English we used the Santa Barbara Corpus of Spoken American English (Du Bois et al 2000Bois et al -2005; SBC henceforth) and the enTenTen15 corpus accessed through the SketchEngine interface (Kilgarriff et al 2014). For Italian we used the LIP corpus (De Mauro et al 1993) and the KIParla corpus (Mauri et al 2019a); the latter is alternatively referred to…”

“…For the purpose of the present study, we performed a search on two corpora of spoken Italian, the KIParla corpus (Goria & Mauri, 2018;Mauri et al, 2019a) and the LIP/VoLIP corpus (De Mauro et al, 1993;Voghera et al, 2014). 8 We extracted all the occurrences of insomma, then focusing on those in which insomma occurs in a pattern of retraction (see Section 2.2.1) with a form "X insomma Y" 9 , like in the previous examples.…”

“…Besides illustrating the nature of lists and their relevance for categorization (Sections 1.1 and 1.2), we discuss their formal and functional properties as "constructions" in the sense of Construction Grammar (Section 2.1) and analyze their interactional properties in two corpora of Spoken Italian, the LIP corpus (De Mauro et al 1993) and the KIParla corpus (Mauri et al, 2019a) (Section 2.2). We ultimately embrace a view that aims at bridging the gap between these two perspectives, that is, between grammar and interaction or discourse (Section 2.3).…”

In this paper we analyse the formal and functional 'extravagance' of general extenders embedded within morphological schemas, either at the end of coordinate compounds, or as constituents of complex words, especially at the end of lists of complex words formed according to the same schema.After discussing two case studies from Italian (eccetera 'etcetera' and tutto 'everything/all'), we conclude that complex words containing general extenders are 'wild words', namely 'contextuals' (Clark & Clark 1979) that are created to meet specific communicative needs and are meant not to be stored. As such, they serve as a strategy to create 'ad hoc categories' (Mauri & Sansò 2018a). The relationship of 'wild words' with lists is also explored and deemed crucial both for their semantic interpretation and for explaining their collocation within morphological structures.
