Texts for publication are accepted on a continuous basis; they may relate to topics of the following issues or to other linguistic problems (see https://journals.us.edu.pl/index.php/FL/about). 

INVITATION TO VOLUME 15, ISSUE 2 (current publications online, the completed issue of the journal  will be published in the second half of the year 2027)

We invite submissions of articles for Volume 15, Issue 2 of Forum Lingwistyczne, which will present research papers in the field of speech-language pathology.

We particularly encourage submissions from authors who presented papers at the 2nd International Conference, Many Voices on Stuttering and Cluttering (Wielogłos o jąkaniu i giełkocie), as well as from other researchers interested in issues related to stuttering, cluttering, and speech-language pathology in its broadest sense.

This issue aims to bring together theoretical and empirical studies devoted to fluency disorders, their linguistic, communicative, cognitive, and social determinants, as well as matters of diagnosis, therapy, and support for individuals who experience stuttering and cluttering. Articles offering methodological reflection, case studies, comparative analyses, and interdisciplinary approaches situating speech-language pathology research within a broader context of the humanities and social sciences are also welcome.

Manuscripts should be submitted via the Open Journal System platform (https://journals.us.edu.pl/index.php/FL) between July 1 and December 31, 2026.

In case of any questions or technical problems, please get in touch with us at: forumlingwistyczne@us.edu.pl.

INVITATION TO VOLUME 16, ISSUE 1 (current publications online, the completed issue of the journal  will be published in the first half of the year 2028)

We invite linguists to submit papers for Issue 1 of Volume 16 of Forum Lingwistyczne. This issue focuses on fixed multiword units in specialized terminologies, and submissions may fall within the fields of corpus linguistics, multilingual terminology, and phraseology. Since the pioneering work of Gross (1996) on fixed expressions, linguistic research has consistently highlighted the significant role played by fixed multiword units in the lexicon of natural languages, both in general language and in languages for specific purposes. From this perspective, terminology is no longer confined to the study of isolated terms; it also encompasses phenomena of restricted lexical combinability, including terminological phrasemes, technolectal collocations, and phraseotexts, which contribute to the organization and structuring of specialized discourse (Cabré, 1998; L’Homme, 2020; Frassi, 2023).

The development of corpus linguistics has opened new research perspectives for the study of such fixed units in specialized languages. Textometric tools and methods, together with the automatic extraction of terms, now make it possible to investigate, on a large scale, the frequency, distribution, and co-occurrence patterns of phraseological units in specialized corpora (Bowker & Pearson, 2002; Gledhill, 2000; L’Homme, 2015). This has created new opportunities for a better understanding of the
processes of terminological stabilization and the mechanisms underlying their variation.

Contributions are invited to address, among others, the following questions:

• the processes involved in the creation of fixed units in specialized languages;
• the contextual and diachronic dynamics of variation exhibited by such units across user communities and cultural contexts;
• issues related to the translation and equivalence of fixed units in multilingual settings;
• the contribution of corpus-linguistic tools and methods to the identification and analysis of these phenomena;
• the impact of lexical fixation on comprehension, knowledge transmission, and terminological standardization.

Manuscripts written in Polish, English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, or Italian should be submitted via the Open Journal Systems platform between 1 January 2027 and 30 June 2027: https://journals.us.edu.pl/index.php/FL. Should you have any questions or encounter technical difficulties, please contact us at: forumlingwistyczne@us.edu.pl.
