Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze lexical errors on the corpus of exams written by third year students of the Italian language and literature at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Sarajevo during the History of the Italian Language I course. We will conduct a quantitative and qualitatve analysis of the corpus with the goal of verifying if students are on their way to acquiring the expected B2 level of lexical skills according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Language guidelines. We expect that the research will show a significant influence of the mother tongue and other studied languages as well as that the grammar level will correspond to the B2 level. In the future, we plan to use this research to determine the shortcomings and quality of the History of the Italian Language I course.
