Abstract

After a brief presentation of the great historical dictionaries of Italian, which are free to use online thanks to the digitalisation work carried out by the Accademia della Crusca, the contribution offers a number of examples of how these tools can be used for educational purposes. Finally, further didactic uses are described, which will be made possible thanks to the advanced digital tools that the Accademia della Crusca and the Istituto di Linguistica Computazionale “Antonio Zampolli” del Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (ILC) are currently working on.
