Southern African Linguistics and Applied Language Studies publishes articles on a wide range of linguistic topics and acts as a forum for research into ALL the languages of southern Africa, including English and Afrikaans. Original contributions are welcomed on any of the core areas of linguistics, both theoretical (e.g. syntax, phonology, semantics) and applied (e.g. sociolinguistic topics, language teaching, language policy). Review articles, short research reports and book reviews are also welcomed. Articles in languages other than English are accompanied by an extended English summary.
Instructions to Authors
Editorial policy: Southern African Linguistics and Applied Language Studies publishes contributions from any of the disciplines in linguistics, both theoretical and applied. The following types of articles will be considered for publication: research articles, reporting on research that fulfills the criteria of a generally accepted research paradigm; review articles, which critically evaluate the research done in a specific field; short communications, very short research articles, or condensed reports on new and meaningful results that warrant urgent publication and that may appear in a more comprehensive article at a later stage; book reviews, concise objective evaluations of books that have recently been published will be solicited by the Reviews Editor.
Contributions may be in any of the 11 official languages of South Africa. All articles must be accompanied by an abstract not exceeding 200 words in the language of the article. Articles in languages other than English must be accompanied by an abstract in English and an extended English summary (500-1 000 words).
All articles should be submitted to the Editor, Prof Marn Pienaar, Department of Linguistics and Literary Theory, University of Johannesburg, PO Box 524, Auckland Park 2006, South Africa. All reviews should be submitted to the Reviews Editor, Prof Gerhard van Huyssteen, Centre for Text Technology (CTexT), North-West University, Private Bag X6000, Potchefstroom 2520, South Africa.

Presentation: Three copies of the manuscript should be submitted to the Editor. The copies must be submitted on A4 paper, in 1.5 spacing and margins of 30mm on all sides. The layout should conform to the following sequence: title page with title, author's name(s), address(es), e-mail address(es), the name and address of the author to whom correspondence should be addressed, and the abstracts. The article itself should commence on a new page and pages should be numbered. A recent issue of the Journal should be consulted for topographical conventions. Footnotes must be avoided. If notes are used, they should be numbered as unparenthesised superscripts and appear at the end of the text under the heading Notes. The numbers must be placed to the right of any punctuation in the text. Examples must be numbered consecutively as they appear in the text. The numbers should be parenthesised and placed next to the left-hand margin. Alphabetical numbering may be used in addition, where examples need to be contrasted or compared with each other. If necessary, an appendix should appear at the end of the article. The final and accepted manuscript should be submitted on disk, accompanied by an identical printed copy. MS Word, WordPerfect or ASCII text format should be used.
Title: This should be concise, but sufficiently informative for use in title lists, or in coding for information storage and retrieval. The title should not exceed 12 words.
Author(s): Should an author's address have changed since the research was carried out, the new address must be given as a footnote.
Abstract: All articles must be accompanied by an abstract of no more than 200 words in the language of the article. Articles in languages other than English must also be accompanied by an English abstract (maximum 200 words). The abstracts should indicate the content of the article factually and concisely and should be suitable for separate publication and adequate for indexing. The English abstract must always appear first, followed by the abstract in the other language.
References: References in the text should be cited as follows Brown and Gold (2000) stated or (Brown & Gold, 2000), when giving a reference simply as authority for a statement. In works by more than two authors the surname of the first author followed by et al. is given. Page referencesto a book in the text should be given as (Brown, 1999:40-51) or Brown (1999: 40-51) suggests. Reference to an item in a newspaper is cited as (Daily News, 2000). A list of only those publications to which reference has been made in the text must be presented alphabetically according to the authors surnames and chronologically under each author, with a, b, c etc. when more than one reference per year from the same author(s) is involved. Examples:
Bailey LA & Timms L. 1976. More on women's and men's expletives. Journal of Anthropological Linguistics 18(3): 21-29.
Labov W. 1969. The Social Stratification of English in New York City. Washington DC: Centre for Applied Linguistics.Human Sciences Research Council. 1978. Analysis of Computer Speech. Pretoria: Government Printer. The Daily News. Durban, 8 August 2000.
Tables: Accompanying tables should be presented on separate A4 sheets and assigned chronological Arabic numerals and short descriptive titles in English, and the language of the article, if the article is not written in English. Wherever possible, tables should be arranged to fit the page within the dimensions of the printed page (200 x 142mm). Tables may include up to five horizontal lines but no vertical lines.
Figures: Figures must be submitted on separate A4 sheets and numbered chronologically as referred to in the text using Arabic numerals. Figures must be executed in black on a clean white background, and one set of original figures and three sets of copies must be submitted. Figures can be submitted in the following electronic formats: TIFF, GIF, WMF, EPS, PLT or JPEG once the manuscript has been accepted for publication. It is essential that lines are thick enough and symbols large enough to withstand reduction. Proper drawing facilities giving uniform lettering and lines must be used. Freehand or typewritten lettering and lines are not acceptable. Particular attention should be paid to the proportions of illustrations so that they can be accommodated in single (68mm) or double (142mm) columns after reduction. All figures must have the authors names and the figure number written on the reverse side using a soft pencil. Figure numbers and descriptive captions should be listed on a separate sheet of paper. Captions should be in English as well as the language in which the article is written, if not in English.
Reprints: corresponding authors will receive an electronic copy of their manuscript for reprint use. Reprints in CD-ROM format can be purchased (R114) from the publishers. Page charges: A page charge of R114 per page (or R86 for subscribers) is levied by NISC. Before final acceptance of articlesauthors must provide a written undertaking to pay the prescribed page charges.
