Notes for Contributors

General:  Al-cArabiyya, the journal of the American Association of Teachers
of Arabic, is a leading journal in the field of Arabic language and
linguistics.   Al-cArabiyya welcomes scholarly and pedagogical articles, as
well as book reviews that contribute to the advancement of study,
criticism, research, and teaching in the fields of Arabic language,
linguistics, and literature.

Authors are encouraged to present an original, scholarly contribution, a
perceptive restructuring of existing knowledge, or a discussion of an idea
with information and references on how to learn more about the topic.
References should be appropriately and sufficiently extensive, and
demonstrative of comprehensive awareness of international scholarship.
 Conclusions drawn should be accurate, appropriately documented, and
soundly argued, without being overextended.

The overall length of the article should be appropriate to the material
treated and should not exceed 7,000 words (no more than 25 pp. in Times New
Roman, 12 pt.).  The material should be well-organized and the writing
style fluent and professional. Articles in Arabic are welcome. We
respectfully request that authors writing in a language other than their
native language have their contribution carefully checked by a native
speaker before submission.  Do not submit a piece that has been published
elsewhere or is being considered for publication elsewhere. Authors alone
are responsible for the opinions they express and for the accuracy of facts
presented in their articles.

Each article is sent to at least two peer reviewers for anonymous
evaluation before a final decision is made regarding acceptance to the
journal. Responses and comments concerning articles published in previous
issues will also be considered for publication. Such responses may, at the
discretion of the editor, be published under “Brief Communications.”

The journal also welcomes translations and bibliographies, provided they
meet  Al- cArabiyya guidelines.  Translations should be scholarly and
accompanied by an introduction or critical essay, annotations,
commentaries, etc. Bibliographies should also be annotated, critical, and
accompanied by an appropriate introduction. Translations and bibliographies
are subject to the same review process as articles.

Book reviews, solicited by the Book Review Editor, are 500 – 1,000 words in
length (2 – 4 pp. in Times New Roman, 12 pt.).  A book review essay, not to
exceed 1,500 words in length (6 pp. in Times New Roman, 12 pt.), treats a
major work in the field as judged by the Book Review Editor.  Book review
essays are limited to one per issue.

Submission:  Manuscripts should be submitted electronically by email
attachment. Please attach both a PDF version and the original MS Word
document. Number the pages in the lower right-hand corner. The author’s
identity should not be revealed in the manuscript or electronic files;
instead, a cover sheet or the body of the email message should include: the
author’s name, address (post and email), telephone number, academic
affiliation, and the title of the article. If there are multiple authors,
please provide the above information for all contributors.

Articles will not be returned to contributors. An abstract in English of
approximately 100 to 150 words should appear at the beginning of the
article.

Typeface. Use italics only for cited linguistic forms, for titles of books
and journals, and for subsection headings. Use SMALL CAPITALS, where
essential, to give emphasis to a word, phrase, or sentence, or to mark the
first occurrence of a technical term.

Endnotes. Wherever possible, limit notes to simple and brief internal
references according to the Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition,* within
parentheses. Endotes may be used when necessary.

Cited forms. Cited forms (letters, morphemes, words, phrases, or sentences)
should appear in italics, e.g. the prefix bi-, the word dars. Italics are
not used for forms marked as being in phonemic or phonetic transcription,
e.g. /sabt/, [sapt]. The meaning of cited forms should appear in double
quotation marks with no comma before it, e.g. walad “boy.”

References. Full citation of references should be given at the end of an
article according to the Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition.* Within the
text, provide in-text citations according to Chicago Manual of Style, 16th
edition*.  Give the author’s surname, year of publication, and page
number(s), where relevant, e.g. Said (1978: 31). Such citations should be
given in the body of the text, unless they refer specifically to a
statement made in an endnote.

The bibliography should be double-spaced, under the heading: REFERENCES.
Only works cited in the text should be listed. Use the following examples
as a guide:

Barlow, Michael, and Charles A. Ferguson, eds. Agreement in Natural
Language:
Approaches, Theories, Descriptions. Stanford: Center for the Study of
Language and Information, 1988.
Blanc, Haim. “Stylistic Variations in Spoken Arabic: A sample of
Interdialectal
Educated Conversation.” In Contributions to Arabic Linguistics, edited by

 morgenländischen Gesellschaft 117 (1967): 53–73.

Transliteration/Transcription. Use an accepted or conventional system for
transliteration or transcription, as appropriate, and use it consistently.
 We suggest Doulos SIL fonts (see http://scripts.sil.org/DoulosSILfont).

Proofs and copies:  Proofs of accepted manuscripts will typically be sent
to the author(s) for careful review, with the response deadline indicated.
Proofreading is the author’s responsibility. No extensive alterations are
possible once a manuscript has been accepted for publication.

Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission from the copyright
holder to quote extracts or to translate a work, and for forwarding a copy
of this permission to the editor.
The author (or lead author) of an article or book review receives one copy
of the issue in which the contribution is published.
