Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submitted manuscript has not been published elsewhere before and contains no materials the publication of which would violate any copyright or other personal or proprietary right of any person or entity.

Author Guidelines

Papers that are submitted for initial consideration should be completed based on the scope of the journal.

The manuscript pages should be numbered consecutively, double-spaced and with  custom margins. Use a normal, plain font (e.g., 12-cambria) for text.

Language

Articles and book reviews should be written in English. Spelling (British or American) should be consistent throughout.

 

Transliteration and Orthography

Where possible, all examples from languages not using the Latin alphabet should be transliterated using an accepted system of transliteration. Authors should use their chosen system consistently throughout the manuscript. Where no standard system has been adopted in the literature (e.g. examples of certain dialects never described before), use symbols to represent sounds that are as close to the IPA symbols as possible, and give explanations  where appropriate.  Where a transliteration  system is already used in the literature, no new transliteration system invented by the author will be accepted.

Articles should be between 5,000 and 7,000 words (not including references) with no footnotes. Permission for longer articles should be requested in advance. The following should be included: abstract (100 to 150 words), up to five keywords, and in the title page file, affiliation details and e-mail address.
