Aims & Scope

Linguisless welcomes submissions exploring language, discourse, communication, annotation practices, interpretive overreach, and the increasingly fragile boundary between rigorous scholarship and opening twenty-seven ELAN files simultaneously.

We particularly encourage:

• statistically sophisticated analyses of culturally insignificant phenomena
• corpus studies based on alarmingly specific datasets
• papers containing at least one diagram nobody can fully explain anymore
• multimodal analyses involving arrows, circles, and theoretical confidence
• NLP papers whose model architecture occupies more pages than the literature review
• discourse analyses of platforms that may not exist by the time the article is published
• interdisciplinary work likely to cause mild discomfort to at least one reviewer

We accept empirical studies, theoretical discussions, methodological reflections, pilot studies, negative results, and papers written entirely out of spite toward Reviewer #2.

Submissions should ideally be:

1. technically sound,
2. conceptually ambitious,
3. and at least slightly unnecessary.
