Full Title: Babel: The Language Magazine 


Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Call for Papers:

Babel is a popular magazine that covers languages and linguistics for a
non-specialist readership. New issues are published in February, May, August
and November of each year. 

We are currently seeking contributions for our 2022 issues. We publish
articles on all linguistic disciplines and topics, the only requirement being
that they make current linguistic research accessible and interesting to our
readers. Articles are between 1,500 to 3,500 words in length. 

We are also seeking contributions for our regular features:
- Ask a Linguist – a linguist answers a question from a Babel reader (500
words).
- Languages of the World – a profile of an obscure or interesting language
(around 1,000 words).
- Linguistic Horizons – a profile of an early-career researcher (1,000 words).
- Linguists at the Movies – a linguist reviews a linguistics-related film
(1,000 words).
- Lives in Language – a profile of an important (deceased!) linguist (around
1,000 words).
- Meet the Professionals – an interview with someone in a linguistics-related
career (around 1,000 words).
- Pull-out poster – a visual guide to a topic or issue in linguistics, with
1,000 words of explanation and discussion of problems (e.g. mapping of the
world’s languages).

Please get in touch for contributor’s guidelines and example articles, or to
run an idea past our editors – babelthelanguagemagazine at gmail.com.
