Language & Culture [ top ]

Studies in Philippine Languages and Cultures (SPLC) combines two former publications titled Studies in Philippine Linguistics (SIPL) and the SIPL Supplementary Series: Philippine Texts.

SPLC (an irregularly published journal) is a joint venture undertaken by the Linguistic Society of the Philippines and the Summer Institute of Linguistics devoted to the timely publication of papers of an empirical or theoretical nature which contribute to the study of language and communicative behavior in the Philippines. A certain proportion of the papers published will be penultimate versions of works of special interest to the Philippine linguistic community destined for further publication in more final form elsewhere.

Scholars engaged in the study and description of Philippine languages and cultures are invited to submit contributions for inclusion in this series. Contact: Academic Publications
