Arabic Linguistics is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles on all aspects of the scientific study of Arabic in all its varieties. The focus may be on one or more varieties, the perspective may be synchronic or diachronic, and the methodology may be quantitative or qualitative. Contributions are invited which address current issues in linguistics, with Arabic as the object of investigation. No specific theoretical approaches are given any preference, but submissions need to have clear implications for linguistic theory and cannot be only descriptive in nature. Striving to be a platform for the dissemination of high-quality research on Arabic linguistics, the journal will also publish reviews of important new books in related areas as well as occasional squibs and dissertation abstracts.


The official language of the journal is English.

Arabic Linguistics publishes its articles online first.
