Content

Students gain familiarity with the basic theoretical notions of Italian lexicology and the most important lexical features (polysemy, synonymy, antonymy, hyperonymy/hyponymy etc.), stratification and chronological variation, lexical structures of words and the relationship between lexis and grammar.
The course focuses on the main word-formation processes (affixation, composition, conversion) and their reflection in Italian, especially as they are used in various languages for special purposes.
