The resulting lexical resource design will encourage new approaches in terms of Arabic language teaching and learning, overcoming the long-standing issue of diglossia.
Given the objective corpus-based CWA description, in the long term the foreseen lexicographic resource may play a crucial role in fostering social dialogue with and within Arabic-speaking minorities in Italy.
In fact, the outcome of the project may have a positive social impact on the inclusion of Arabic-speaking communities, since it will contribute to produce teaching and learning materials that will be closer to the actual linguistic reality of native Arabic speakers, also in connection with the existing (but still very limited) presence of Arabic among languages taught in Italian high schools.
