CLD is a peer-reviewed journal which seeks to publish original work on
Chinese and related languages, with a focus on current topics in
Chinese discourse studies. The notion of discourse is a broad one,
emphasizing an empirical orientation and encompassing such linguistic
fields as language and society, language and culture, language and
thought, language and social interaction, discourse and grammar,
communication studies, and contact linguistics. Special emphasis is
placed on systematic documentation of Chinese usage patterns and
methodological innovations in explaining Chinese and related languages
from a wide range of functional perspectives, including, but not
limited to, those of conversation analysis, sociolinguistics, corpus
linguistics, grammaticalization, cognitive linguistics, typological
and comparative studies.
The journal also publishes review articles as well as extended
comments on published articles. Exchanges of research views between
authors and readers are also welcome.
CLD publishes its articles Online First.
