Gramáticas y diccionarios en la enseñanza del italiano como L2

Resumen

No language or speaker, nature or foreigner, can do without a grammar or dictionary in the process of learning a foreign language. Grammar, in the terms in which we are using it, is a ongoing process and it constitutes a Corpus within reach of teacher and the students. In this sense, Grammar and Research are parallel and complementary fields. Grammars and Dictionaries are the two basic pillars on which the teaching of a language is based. Learning a language is a conscious process of acquisition and dominion of phonology, grammar and lexis. As far as the lexicographical element goes, it is not merely restricted to the translation of items, but it also provides a description of them and even, on occasions, offers extra-grammatical information with until regards cultural aspects. The dictionary is one of the most interesting guides to the learning of uses and customs. Below, we present a study of the grammars and dictionaries (of the Italian Language) since the beginnings of the 16th centuries.
