Frequently asked questions
How AI Calabria preserves the dialects of the Province of Cosenza
Which dialects and speech varieties are collected in the Province of Cosenza?
AI Calabria collects words, phrases, expressions, stories and pronunciations associated with individual municipalities in the Province. Forms are published after the validation required by the project.
How can I preserve my municipality’s dialect in the Province of Cosenza?
Choose the municipality, add a contribution and, whenever possible, include an audio pronunciation. After validation, the content enters the public heritage and the territory’s book.
What are AI Calabria’s municipal books?
Every municipality has a living book that collects validated linguistic contributions. Books that are still empty await the community’s first word, phrase or recording.
Can universities collaborate using data from the Province?
AI Calabria aims to make linguistic heritage useful for research while respecting method, attribution, consent, licences and data quality.
Every validated contribution becomes a permanent part of Calabria’s linguistic memory.
