笔者做过较长时间外语期刊的编辑工作,期间一直被来稿内容的这样几个问题所困扰:(1)综述性质的文章多,研究性质的文章少。其中西方语言学,特别是美国语言学综述的文章多,其他国家语言学的综述文章少。(2)抽象议论,研究语言学理论自身的文章多;研究第一手语料,解决语言体系实际问题的个案文章少。 I have done a longer period of editorial work of foreign language periodicals, has been the contents of the manuscripts during the period of several problems plagued by: (1) summarize the nature of articles, research articles less. Among them, there are many articles on western linguistics, especially on the review of American Linguistics, and few on other linguistics in other countries. (2) There are many articles about abstract argumentation and linguistic theory; few case studies on first-hand corpus and practical problems of language system.
