We are facing an epochal turning point born from the spread of Covid-19, which has changed all areas of life and even the lexicon of the Italian language: the pandemic has changed the connotations of the language, introducing neologisms, e.g., covidiot, which describes those who do not comply with behavioral norms to prevent the spread of the virus.: the word covidiot was born, describing those who do not comply with behavioral norms to prevent the spread of the virus, while many other words have undergone semantic slippage, i.e., an extension of meaning has occurred, e.g.: the word tampon does not only refer to a feminine hygienic pad, but, currently, indicates the most reliable test for the diagnosis of Coronavirus infection. These changes enrich the vocabulary of the language and make it constantly evolving.
