Aims
JALT publishes scholarly (peer-reviewed) articles that contribute to a proper and principled understanding of the Arabic linguistics tradition, encompassing the whole range of phonological, morphological, syntactic, semantic, and other related analyses and the specific contribution of linguists since the tradition’s earliest inception (around the 8th Century) until the 15th Century. The journal accepts articles in English and Arabic. The journal also welcomes translation articles, especially those accompanied by commentary and/or analysis sections.
