Introduction
Aims and Scopes

The journal explores the intricate structures of languages, with a strong emphasis on Romanian grammar, morphology, and syntax. This includes the examination of pronouns, clitics, and verb forms, contributing to the understanding of language mechanics. - Language Contact and Variation:
A significant focus is placed on language contact phenomena, particularly how languages influence each other in multilingual settings. Studies often investigate the impact of external linguistic forces on the evolution of Romanian and its dialects. - Sociolinguistics and Pragmatics:
The journal also addresses sociolinguistic aspects, examining how language functions in social contexts, including discourse practices, language attitudes, and the role of language in media. - Historical Linguistics and Diachronic Studies:
Research often delves into the historical development of the Romanian language and its dialects, analyzing changes over time and their implications for modern linguistic theory. - Lexicography and Language Documentation:
The journal contributes to the field of lexicography by publishing dictionaries and studies on lexical items, which are crucial for understanding the vocabulary and semantic fields of Romanian and its varieties.
Trending and Emerging
- Corpus-Based Linguistics:
There is a growing trend towards utilizing corpus-based methodologies to study language, as evidenced by the increasing number of papers focusing on collocations, lexical choices, and discourse practices through empirical data. - Language Contact and Bilingualism:
Research on language contact, particularly in multilingual environments, is on the rise, reflecting the complexities of bilingualism and the resulting linguistic phenomena in Romanian and other languages. - Digital Linguistics and Media Language:
The impact of digital communication and media on language use is becoming a significant area of interest, with studies analyzing how online platforms influence linguistic practices and discourse. - Language Teaching and Learning:
There is an emerging focus on language pedagogy, particularly concerning the teaching of Romanian as a foreign language, highlighting the importance of practical applications of linguistic research. - Pragmatics and Discourse Analysis:
The journal is increasingly publishing studies that investigate pragmatic aspects of language use, including discourse markers and communicative strategies, indicating a shift towards understanding language in context.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Dialect Studies:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the publication of papers focused exclusively on traditional dialect studies, suggesting a shift towards more contemporary linguistic issues and methodologies. - Comparative Romance Linguistics:
While comparative studies among Romance languages were once a significant area of interest, recent publications show a waning focus on this theme, possibly due to the increasing specificity of research concentrating on individual languages. - Phonetic and Phonological Analyses:
The frequency of phonetic and phonological analyses in the journal seems to be declining, which may reflect a broader trend in linguistic research favoring syntax, semantics, and sociolinguistic perspectives over traditional phonetic studies.
