Excerpt from Dictionary of Italian Slang This dictionary is meant as a supplement to the conventional, standard works of reference. It contains many hundreds of words and expressions that have either been completely omitted from the "regular" dictionaries or that are listed by them under a different meaning; for the first group, see appendix a), while for the second group appendix b) contains a number of examples. Since this is not intended to be a scientific study but a practical manual, no attempt has been made to distinguish each entry as to its "level" or to classify dialect terms according to their region of origin; this is rather difficult - in certain cases quite impossible. About twenty years ago, words such as fesso and pignolo would have been considered as southern dialect; today, they are not even slang, just popular terms understood wherever Italian is spoken. The same may be said about ramazza and toso which are of northern origin but now are popular all over the country, with the possible exception of the regions south of Rose.

Excerpt from Dictionary of Quotations: French and Italian In the preface to the Dictionary of Classical Quotations it was stated that a volume of quotations from European sources was in progress, and would shortly be published. As the work progressed, however, the mass of material was found to be too great to include in one volume; it was therefore decided to issue first the present volume, containing quotations from French and Italian sources only, to be followed in due course by a further volume from German, Spanish and other sources.
