Our study area lies on a border between two main linguistic groups: the Germanic and the Romance. Besides, two subgroups within the Romance area are represented in our research project: the Ladin and the Italo-Romance dialects with Trentino. The interesting fact, however, is that speakers cross this borders all the time and language varieties come into contact in every day language use.
