Abstract While I was teaching the subject of Language Planning at Pompeu Fabra University between September and December 2020, the Institut d’Estudis Catalans announced the inclusion of 14 lexical units related to the LGTBI world in its Diccionari de la llengua catalana (DIEC2) and the modification of 17 definitions to eliminate gender bias. I immediately incorporated this intervention on the corpus into the sessions on the evaluation of language policies. The result is an attempt to reconstruct the ex ante and in media res evaluations and a complete ex post evaluation essay (Gazzola, 2014) of the inclusion of this lexicon in the DIEC2 from the standpoint of “fairness” (Gazzola, 2014: 90).
