What it does
Language is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when targeting Language (the Linguistic Society of America journal) or deciding whether a linguistics manuscript fits this discipline-wide flagship. Encodes the journal's fit across all subfields, the claim-plus-data bar, theoretical and cross-linguistic expectations, house style, glossing and double-blind norms, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. ｜ 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Language loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 727 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Use when targeting Language (the Linguistic Society of America journal) or deciding whether a linguistics manuscript fits this discipline-wide flagship. Encodes the journal's fit across all subfields, the claim-plus-data bar, theoretical and cross-linguistic expectations, house style, glossing and double-blind norms, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
Language (language)
Journal positioning
Language is the flagship journal of the Linguistic Society of America and the discipline-wide generalist venue for all of linguistics — phonetics and phonology, morphology and syntax, semantics and pragmatics, sociolinguistics, historical and typological linguistics, language acquisition, and psycholinguistics. Its defining expectation is a clearly stated claim supported by rigorous language data and/or formal argument that speaks beyond a single sub-community: a result a linguist in another subfield will recognize as consequential. A solid descriptive note or a framework-internal exercise with no broader stake is a poor fit, however careful. This skill is a fit / venue-selection / re-framing aid. It does not replace the journal's current submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live Language author instructions and style sheet, and defer all reporting specifics to the official page.
When to trigger
- The author names Language for a linguistics article and wants a fit/framing check.
- A subfield-specific result must be re-framed to show discipline-wide significance.
- The author is choosing between Language and a framework- or subfield-specialist venue.
- The author needs Language's evidence/argument bar and desk-reject heuristics.
Scope & topic fit
- Original work in any core subfield: phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, sociolinguistics, historical linguistics, typology, acquisition.
- Experimental and corpus-based studies (psycholinguistics, phonetics, variationist sociolinguistics) where method and data are sound and the finding generalizes.
- Theoretical contributions that are framework-aware but legible across approaches, not only to adherents of one formalism.
- Documentation and description of under-studied languages when it yields a result of general theoretical or typological interest.
- Work bridging subfields (e.g., phonology–morphology, syntax–semantics interfaces) that a single-subfield journal would under-serve.
Method & evidence bar
- The contribution is a clearly stated claim backed by empirical language data, formal argument, or both; the stake is named early, not left implicit.
- Linguistics is partly empirical: examples, judgments, corpus, or experimental data must be representative and adequate to the claim — defer exact reporting/statistical specifics to the official guidance.
- Cross-linguistic or otherwise representative evidence supports generality; a single-language pattern is framed for its broader import.
- The theoretical framework is made explicit and the analysis is internally consistent and falsifiable, with alternatives considered.
- Engagement with the relevant literature is current and fair across (not only within) the chosen approach.
- Data are transparent: numbered examples with morpheme-by-morpheme interlinear (Leipzig-style) glosses and free translations where the language is not English.
Structure & house style
- Full-length research article with a sustained argument; re-check current length limits and article types (including short reports/discussion notes) on the live guide.
- Citation follows the journal's current author-date style sheet with a reference list.
- Double-blind review: anonymize the manuscript (self-citations and acknowledgements) per current policy.
- Numbered linguistic examples with aligned interlinear glosses and source attribution; follow Leipzig glossing conventions and the journal's example formatting.
- Phonetic transcription in IPA; figures, spectrograms, and tables meet the journal's specifications and are legible in print.

Official-submission checklist
- Before giving submission-ready advice, read
../../resources/source-basis.mdand../../resources/official-source-map.md; start from the LSA anchors, then cite the current Language page you checked. - Search the live site for "Language LSA author guidelines" and follow the current version.
- Re-check article types, length limits, abstract requirement, and the LSA style sheet.
- Confirm anonymization for double-blind review and the example/glossing format.
- Re-check data-availability/replication expectations and any elicitation/IRB ethics reporting for experimental or fieldwork data.
- Re-check competing-interest, funding, and AI-use disclosures.
- If the live official instructions conflict with this skill, the official instructions win.
Pre-submission self-check
- There is a single clear claim whose significance reaches beyond one subfield.
- Language data (examples, corpus, or experiment) are representative and adequate to the claim.
- Cross-linguistic or otherwise general evidence supports the generality asserted.
- Numbered examples carry Leipzig-style interlinear glosses and translations.
- The manuscript is anonymized and follows the current LSA style sheet.
- Engagement with the literature is fair and current across approaches, not only one.
Common desk-reject triggers
- A descriptive note with no general theoretical or typological stake.
- A framework-internal exercise legible only to adherents of one formalism.
- Claims of generality resting on a single language or thin, non-representative data, or under-controlled experimental/corpus data unfit for the claim.
- Examples without proper interlinear glosses, translations, or sources.
- Scope too narrow for a discipline-wide audience (better at a subfield specialist).
Re-routing decision
- Generative syntax and its interfaces, or a short squib →
linguistic-inquiry. - Framework-neutral general theoretical linguistics →
journal-of-linguistics. - Theoretical syntax/morphology with deep cross-linguistic data →
natural-language-and-linguistic-theory. - Philosophy-of-language argument rather than a linguistic result →
the-philosophical-review. - Broad cultural-theory framing of language →
critical-inquiry(generically).
