Subject: Editorial Change JB Journal Asia-Pacific Language Variation
As of Issue 12:2 (2026), the John Benjamins journal Asia-Pacific
Language Variation welcomes on board two new Editors, Maya
Ravindranath Abtahian (University of Rochester, USA) and Rebecca Lurie
Starr (National University of Singapore) and two new Associate
Editors, Wilkinson Daniel Wong Gonzales (The Chinese University of
Hong Kong) and Nick Palfreyman (University of Central Lancashire).
We owe Founding Editor Shobha Satyanath a huge debt of gratitude for
starting the journal more than a decade ago and for making it grow and
flourish.
The journal aims to report research on the description and analysis of
variation and change from the Asia-Pacific region. The journal
encourages research that is firmly based on empirical data and
quantitative analysis of variation and change as well as the social
factors that are reflected and constructed through language variation
and change. Though much of the research is expected to be based on new
speech data and fieldwork, the language data may be either oral or
written, including both modern and historical resources. The unique
emphasis of the journal is to promote understanding of the
multifaceted linguistic communities of Asia-Pacific.
APLV publishes its articles Online First.
