International Journal Linguistics of Sumatra and Malay (IJLSM)

The International Journal Linguistics of Sumatra and Malay is an international scholarly forum dedicated to leading research on language and society. It embraces both established and emerging approaches in sociolinguistic inquiry, with each contribution expected to integrate both linguistic and social dimensions. The journal views language not merely as a reflection of society but as a fundamental component that shapes social life itself.
It welcomes submissions from a wide range of traditions, including ethnographic linguistics, variationist studies, constructivist approaches, the sociology of language, the social psychology of language, anthropological linguistics, discourse analysis, language and gender studies, pragmatics, and conversation analysis. The journal encourages critical engagement with linguistic theories and the application of social theory to linguistic phenomena.

The journal was first published in 2022 by Talenta Publisher, under the management of the Doctoral Program in Linguistics, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Universitas Sumatera Utara. It is published in collaboration with the Dosen Indonesia Semesta (DIS) Daerah Sumatera Utara (Indonesian Lecturers Association)  and the Masyarakat Linguistik Indonesia (MLI) Cabang Universitas Sumatera Utara (Indonesian Linguistic Society).
