Following an introduction to Lombard and its Wikipedia (Section 2), the research will continue in Section 3 by analyzing relevant (ortho)graphic, morpho-syntactic and lexical features that have been found on the aforementioned website, especially on its registration form and on the pages categorized as Scenza di calculadur (that is, ‘computer technology and science’). On the basis of these data, section 4 will draw conclusions on the Ausbauization and the vitality of Lombard.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
