journal-of-linguistics

separate

Use when targeting Journal of Linguistics (Cambridge University Press, for the Linguistics Association of Great Britain) or deciding whether a general theoretical-linguistics manuscript fits this framework-neutral venue. Encodes the journal's broad fit, the argument-and-data bar, framework-neutrality, house style, glossing and double-blind norms, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

When to use

• fit/framing check for Journal of Linguistics
• re-framing framework-specific analysis
• choosing between Journal of Linguistics and other venues
• checking argument bar and desk-reject heuristics
• theoretical work in core subfields
• comparative and typological linguistics
• historical and diachronic linguistics with theoretical argument
• methodological and foundational articles

When not to use

• narrowly framework-internal exercise
• purely descriptive report with no theoretical pay-off
• replacing the journal's current submission guidelines
