Traduction et Langues | Journal of Translation and Languages

Traduction et Langues TRANSLANG aims to advance international research in Translation Studies, Language Sciences, Interpreting Studies, Applied Linguistics, and Multilingual Communication. The journal will be of interest to scholars, practitioners, and educators engaged in Translation Studies, Applied Linguistics, and Multilingual Education. The journal seeks to:
• publish original and rigorous theoretical, empirical, methodological, and applied research;

• strengthen dialogue between Translation Studies and the Sciences of Language;

• promote research addressing multilingual communication and language-mediated practices;

• encourage innovative and transparent research methodologies;

• support interdisciplinary approaches to translation, language, discourse, education, society, and technology;

• provide an international forum for research addressing diverse languages, regions, institutions, and communities.

Types of Contributions
TRANSLANG primarily publishes:

• Original research articles
• Review articles
• Scholarly book reviews
• Selected research reports and special-issue contributions

Research articles should present a clearly formulated research problem, appropriate theoretical grounding, transparent methodology, substantive analysis, and an identifiable contribution to existing scholarship.
The journal does not restrict submissions to a particular geographical region. Research addressing under-represented languages, communities, regions, and research contexts is welcome when it makes a clearly articulated contribution to international scholarship.
