"El marcador del discurso 'bueno': análisis y propuestas de traducción hacia el italiano (I)"

The paper first gives an introductory overview on the use of bueno, highlighting its great frequency in spoken Spanish, and then proceeds to analyze more specific aspects of its use, such as punctuation, intonation and syntactic-collocational patterns, with constant reference to possible equivalents in Italian
