================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at

Does anyone know of a freely available large (preferably >100M word) corpus
of Italian? Either the corpus itself, or a word list containing all word
forms in the corpus would be useful.  Genre is unimportant, though a corpus
that contains at least some literary works would be preferable.
