Author Guidelines

Slovo accepts contributions written in any Slavic or Scandinavian language, as well as English. We also warmly welcome contributions by researchers in early stages of their career, PhD students and postdocs. 

Slovo uses double-blind review, and each research article submitted to Slovo is reviewed by two reviewers. To facilitate the reviewing process, we kindly ask the authors to prepare the manuscripts in a way that their identity is not given away.

Slovo comes out in December-January, so even though we accept contributions all year, we recommend to send us your materials before 1 June in order to get the reviews and implement the suggested changes in time.

All accepted manuscripts must be formatted according to the Slovo stylesheetPdf, 363 kB., using the Slovo templateWord, 118 kB.. For additional guidance, consult the manual How to Use the Slovo TemplatePdf, 2 MB.

All accepted manuscripts by non-native speakers must be proofread by native speakers.
