Are you looking for a print dictionary?
The new Italian-Ligurian (Genoese) Dictionary (Dizionario italiano-genovese) by Stefano Lusito was conceived as a reference for those looking for a summary of the most frequent Italian terms and their Ligurian equivalents. The dictionary contains a vast selection of examples, idiomatic expressions, proverbs, and highlights many of the most common false friends and expressions which diverge between the two languages.
