Annotation
This study explores to what extent the different languages constituting the linguistic repertory of the Northern Italian cities of Milan and Udine, are visibly present in the linguistic landscape via street signs, focusing on the local regional/minority languages Milanese and Friulian. Most of the recorded signs are in Italian, some in English and only a few in the the local regional/minority languages.
