Abstract: This article examines the Italian phenomenon of false anglicisms from a lexicographic perspective. It describes the way in which false anglicisms are recorded in Italian monolingual dictionaries whilst providing a typology and suggesting a tentatively comprehensive list of their use in Italian. The author argues that they are not treated adequately by some recent electronic dictionaries and that a more accurate typology of false anglicisms is needed for a proper classification and a better compilation of both Italian monolingual and bilingual dictionaries.
