Abstract

RepSi (acronym standing for Repertorio lessicale dei regionalismi d’uso scolastico della Svizzera italiana) is a project that aims at collecting and analyzing up-to-date data about the perception and the usage of the Swiss variety of Italian (ISIT) in the educational context in the Italian-speaking Regions of Switzerland, namely Ticino and Graubünden. This contribution is divided in two main sections: the first one intends to explain how the project RepSi has been developed and which milestones have already been reached during the first year of work; the second one presents a selection of words (explained both in their meaning and in their use) and some further developments related to school teaching and perception of this regional variety of language.
