Journal of Language Contact

Evolution of languages, contact and discourse

"Es gibt keine völlig ungemischte Sprache" (Hugo Schuchardt)

Call for Papers – Journal of Language Contact (JLC) VARIA 3 The Journal of Language Contact (JLC) focuses on the study of language use and language change based on a view of language contact whereby both, empirical data and the resulting theoretical elaborations are considered. JLC considers contributions with a theoretical or an empirical approach. Articles discussing the association of linguistic, anthropological, sociological, historical, and cognitive factors are welcome. We favor the publication of such contributions and results of research that have been not published elsewhere and welcome articles which are likely to bring forward international research on language contact at the empirical as well as at the theoretical level. Papers may be submitted in French or English. Contributions should be sent as a mail attachment in RTF or DOC, and PDF.
