Hence, speaking is never neutral as it is underpinned by a way of thinking, of communicating, of being. The sexist usage of language encapsulates a function of emphasis at the semantic level and an obscuring function in morphological terms. We thus question what sexism in language means in order to inquire as to how the ways we make use of language may influence our ways of thinking and, consequently, our ways of acting.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={A matter of Gender: Italian Sociolinguistics and Didactics for the construction of a visible feminine}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/112024/PDF/KN%202-19%2035RICCI.pdf}, doi={10.24425/kn.2019.128417}, keywords={Linguistics- gender- stereotypes- sexism- teaching}, }
