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.

# Journal of Linguistics (journal-of-linguistics)

## Journal positioning

Journal of Linguistics, published by Cambridge University Press for the Linguistics
Association of Great Britain, is a general theoretical-linguistics venue that is
deliberately **framework-neutral** and open across subfields — phonology, morphology,
syntax, semantics, pragmatics, historical linguistics, and the philosophy and
methodology of the field. Its defining expectation is a **well-argued theoretical
contribution intelligible to linguists of different persuasions**: a clear problem, a
careful analysis, and a result whose interest does not depend on prior commitment to one
formalism. A narrowly framework-internal exercise, or a purely descriptive report with
no theoretical pay-off, is a poor fit. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection /
re-framing** aid. It does not replace the journal's current submission guidelines. Before
