Lessicografia per la didattica: una lista dei 1000 frasemi più frequenti della lingua italiana

This article discusses an ongoing project at Dresden University of Technology that aims to identify prevalent phraseological units in Italian argumentative texts. Grounded in phraseology and constructionist approaches, the project conducts corpus analysis to pinpoint frequently used Italian phraseological units. The theoretical framework includes lexical-grammatical continuity, highlighted by usage-based theories, phraseological terminology, and a redefined notion of lexical and phraseological competence. Furthermore, the article describes the methodology used for two phraseological lists for English and French, while outlining the author’s initiative to compile a list specifically tailored to written Italian, particularly for the argumentative genre.
