About the Journal

The International Journal of Multilingualism and Languages for Specific Purposes (IJMLSP) is an international, double-blind, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing research on multilingual communication in Languages for Specific Purposes (LSP). The journal provides a specialized scholarly platform for examining how multilingualism shapes the production, transmission, and interpretation of specialized knowledge in academic, professional, and institutional contexts.

Published by University of Oran 2 Mohamed Ben Ahmed, IJMLSP seeks to contribute to the growing body of research at the intersection of applied linguistics, multilingualism studies, specialized discourse analysis, and LSP pedagogy. The journal positions itself within the expanding field of multilingual specialized communication, addressing the linguistic, sociocultural, and institutional dynamics that influence communication in globalized professional environments. IJMLSP focuses specifically on multilingual practices within specialized communication domains.

The journal welcomes studies employing a wide range of methodological approaches, including:

Discourse and genre analysis in specialized communication
Corpus-based and corpus-driven studies of specialized language
Sociolinguistic and ethnographic approaches to professional communication
Pedagogical research in LSP and multilingual education
Translation, terminology, and mediation in specialized discourse
Digital communication and multimodal analysis

Contributions are expected to provide original insights, rigorous methodological frameworks, or empirically grounded findings. IJMLSP aims to foster research that reflects global realities by encouraging studies addressing cross-cultural communication, multilingual knowledge transfer, language policy in professional settings, and international professional discourse practices. The journal publishes original research articles, research reports, case studies, and book reviews, and appears biannually.
