The same linguistic category exists also in German, as ‘falschen Freunde’ (Carstensen 5. Colombia: Including Their Societies of Origin .......(Sañé 101 1980: 94), and Spanish,Emigrants as ‘falsosinamigos’ or ‘falsos afines’ Urs Watter and Schepisi 1992: v).

The main problem encountered in ascertaining the number of false Anglicisms in the 5. Colombia: Their Societies of Origin ....... 101 GDU – the Including same is Emigrants valid for inany other lexicographic source Urs Watter considered – is that false Anglicisms are not always clearly identifiable due toand theResponsibility different labels assigned.

5.6 Alianza Paísthe .................................................................................. 112 When measuring incidence of false Anglicisms on the Italian vocabulary, ‘type frequency’ must be considered.

As Bybee (2007: 9) writes: ‘Token frequency counts the number Together of times a unit appears in runningoftext.’. In addition, Bybee (2007:119 16) Working for the Well-being Migrants ........................... points out that ‘[w]hen one is studying token frequency, there is an inherent problem Barry Halliday in determining the point at which high should be distinguished from low.’. 56

it is Including difficult to establish a clear-cut threshold frequency on the basis 5.Although Colombia: Emigrants in Their Societies of Origin ....... 101of which Anglicisms should be included in or excluded from an ad hoc Ursfalse Watter dictionary, a well-meditated decision is particularly important since at times frequency dataInterest provided byResponsibility corpus evidence are in contrast with the lexicographer’s 5.1 State and view oftowards the language. For instance, the lexicographer would have the impression102 that their Citizens Living Abroad ........................................... a false Anglicism is quite common in the Italian language and therefore should be included in the dictionary in spite of its very low frequency in newspaper corpora. 5.2 Applied Ethics .............................................................................. 104 As Pulcini (2008b: 193) argues: ‘[…] corpus data are an important index of currency Migration and with Ethics but 5.3 figures must bePolicy balanced the......................................................... criteria set up for the dictionary […]106 and possibly with additional information from other sources […] and in some cases the 5.4 Migration Policy in Colombia ...................................................... 108 opinions of Italian experts in certain fields.

Pulcini’s argument is supported by Summers (1996: 266), who maintains that ‘[f]requency is a powerful tool in the lexicographer’s arsenal 5.6 Alianza País .................................................................................. 112of resources […]. However, in dictionary-making editorial judgment is of paramount 5.7 Challenges importance, because .................................................................................... blindly following the corpus, no matter how carefully, can114 lead to oddities.’. 15 Bibliography ....................................................................................... 116 Although the number of tokens in the La Repubblica archive is not provided, an approximate figure can be determined.

Lexicography worldwide: theoretical, descriptive and applied perspectives
Series Editor Giovanni Iamartino (Milano) Scientific Committee Michael P. Adams (Bloomington) Ignacio Ahumada (Jaén) Maria Colombo (Milano) Giovanni Iamartino (Milano) Félix San Vicente (Bologna-Forlì) André Thibault (Paris)
Anche se l’attività lessicografica ha alle proprie spalle una lunga e onorevole tradizione, gli anni recenti hanno visto nuovi e significativi sviluppi nella teoria lessicografica e nella descrizione e produzione dei dizionari, in un periodo in cui il lessico ha riconquistato una certa preminenza nella riflessione linguistica. La collana “Lexicography worldwide: theoretical, descriptive and applied perspectives” si propone pertanto come forum di discussione sulle nuove prospettive in ogni ambito lessicografico: i nuovi sviluppi nella teoria lessicografica; le analisi critiche dettagliate dei dizionari del passato e del presente; le ricerche sull’interfaccia tra i dizionari, la loro produzione e il loro uso, e gli utenti. La collana pubblicherà studi monografici, raccolte di saggi o atti di convegni. Ciascun volume della collana è sottoposto a revisione anonima da parte di due membri del Comitato Scientifico e/o del Comitato

Consultivo internazionale (attualmente composto da 13 studiosi americani, inglesi, francesi, spagnoli e italiani). Si auspica che la pubblicazione in rete open-access della collana “Lexicography worldwide” possa incoraggiare il dialogo scientifico internazionale tra i ricercatori, e tra questi e i lessicografi di professione. ~~~~ Though the practice of dictionary-making has a long, time-honoured tradition behind, recent years have witnessed new and significant developments in lexicographical theory and in the description and production of dictionaries, at a time when lexis has regained prominence in linguistic research. The book series “Lexicography worldwide: theoretical, descriptive and applied perspectives” is therefore meant to be a forum for discussion and debate over new perspectives on any aspect of lexicography: new developments in lexicographic theory; detailed critical analyses of past and present dictionaries; research on the interface between dictionaries, their production and use, and their users. The book series will publish monographs, collections of essays or conference proceedings. Each book in the series is blind peer-reviewed by two members of the Scientific Committee and/or the international Advisory Board (currently consisting of 13 American, British, French, Spanish and Italian scholars). It is hoped that the online open-access publication of the “Lexicography worldwide” series will encourage international scientific dialogue among researches and between researchers and practising lexicographers. ~~~~ Bien que l’activité lexicographique ait derrière soi une tradition longue et honorable, au cours de ces dernières années tant la lexicographie que la description et production de dictionnaires ont connu un développement considérable, parallèle au renouveau d’intérêt dont le lexique bénéficie au seine de la réflexion linguistique. Dans une telle optique, la collection « Lexicography worldwide : theoretical, descriptive and applied perspectives » se propose comme un lieu de

discussion sur les nouvelles approches dans tous les domaines lexicographiques : nouveaux développements dans la théorie lexicographique ; analyses critiques des dictionnaires d’hier et d’aujourd’hui ; recherches sur les rapports entre les dictionnaires, leur production et leur usage. Cette collection accueillira des études monographiques, des recueils d’articles ou des actes de colloques. Chaque volume de la collection sera soumis à la lecture, sous forme anonyme, de deux membres du Comité Scientifique et / ou du Comité de lecture international (celui-ci étant composé, à l’état actuel, de 13 spécialistes américains, anglais, français, espagnols, italiens). On souhaite que la publication de la collection « Lexicography worldwide » sur le réseau Internet en libre accès encouragera les échanges scientifiques internationaux entre les chercheurs, et entre ceux-ci et les lexicographes professionnels. ~~~~ Aunque la actividad lexicográfica cuenta ya con una larga y honrosa tradición, en los últimos años se han producido nuevos y significativos avances, tanto en cuestiones teóricas como en producción de diccionarios, en un momento en el que se puede observar que el estudio del léxico ha alcanzado cierta preponderancia en la reflexión lingüística. La colección “Lexicography worldwide: theoretical, descriptive and applied perspectives” se propone como fórum de discusión de nuevas perspectivas en ámbito lexicográfico: renovados aspectos teóricos; análisis crítico de diccionarios del pasado y de la actualidad; investigaciones sobre la interfaz entre diccionarios, su produción, utilización y usuarios. La colección publica estudios monográficos, artículos seleccionados y actas de congresos. Dos miembros, componentes del Comité Científico o bien del Comité del Consulta Internacional (actualmente compuesto por 13 expertos: americanos, ingleses, franceses, españoles e italianos), son los encargados de evaluar de modo anónimo la obra. La colección “Lexicography worldwide” nace con la intención de estimular el diálogo científico internacional entre investigadores y lexicógrafos de profesión, a través de su publicación abierta on-line.
