HOW TO FORMAT YOUR PAPER THE SWPL STYLE SHEET Cornelia Gerhardt, Susanne Ley, Anglistik, Saarland University

This is the formatting for your abstract. Simply insert it here. Aim for around 100 words. xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xx x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxx xxxxx end of abstract. KEYWORDS: style sheet, working papers, linguistics

INTRODUCTION1

The following rules and regulations apply for submitting to Saarland Working Papers in Linguistics (SWPL). The style sheet will be updated regularly following the needs of individual authors/disciplines. 2

SUBMISSION

Your article should be submitted electronically to [email protected] in PDF-format. All links, videos, sound files etc. should be linked and working. Tables, diagrams, pictures etc. should be placed where they belong. Adhere strictly to the rules given here. The editors will take care of the final formatting if needs be (for example when a heading appears separated from its text). Together with the text you should provide a separate attachment with your full name and institutional address, the title and abstract(s) of the article, and key words (up to five) in the language of your article (and up to five SWD keywords if at hand). 1

We heartily thank Neal R. Norrick and Gerardine Pereira for their help with the style sheet. Needless to say, any remaining inconsistencies are our sole responsibility.

Furthermore, indicate on that sheet who reviewed your paper. Generally, the dissertation supervisor or any other full professor at Saarland University is eligible. For further information, see the editorial (Gerhardt 2007).

SETTINGS

AND TEXT

The style sheet may be used as a template. You can replace the different passages with your own. Make sure you tick ‘An Zielformatierung anpassen’ under ‘Einfügen-Optionen’ after inserting the text. ‘Einfügen-Optionen’ will appear automatically underneath the inserted text (on the right). Alternatively, you can use ‘Format’  ‘Formatvorlagen und Formatierung’ to produce a document in accordance with the SWPL guidelines. Since SWPL intends to function as a forum for first publications, we would like to emphasise at this point that ANY questions may be sent to us. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have trouble with this template. Generally, do not enter further empty lines unless specified in the style sheet. The only exception is the insertion of tables, charts etc. where an extra carriage return may be necessary. 3.1

DIFFERENT

FORMATS AVAILABLE

Please refer to the following table concerning the different styles and formats for SWPL. Diagram 1: Styles and formats

TYPEFACES

IN THE TEXT

2

Use italics for all cited linguistic forms and examples in the text. Do NOT use italics for emphasis, or to mark loanwords or technical terms. Use CAPITAL LETTERS to mark a technical term at its first use or definition, or to give emphasis to a word or phrase in the text. Use ‘single quotation marks’ for any other matters. In this style sheet, it was used to refer to the different formatting styles in the text. It can also be used e.g. to refer to meanings: “In this case, haha means ‘sunk fence’, not ‘laughter’.” Be consistent! When in doubt, contact the editors. 5

TITLE

Capitalize lexical words in the title, but NOT in sections (sub-) headings. Use style ‘title’. 6

ABSTRACT

Format your abstract with the help of ‘abstract.’ It should contain around 100 words. If the language of the paper is other than English, you may want to provide an English abstract as well. In this case, insert the English abstract first. 7

KEYWORDS

Give up to five keywords in the language of your article. The word KEYWORDS itself should be in SMALL CAPITALS (and capitalised). If you know how to handle SWD, you may also give up to five keywords (in addition to the free keywords.) However, do not insert them in your paper, but put them on the second sheet containing your name, title of article… (cf. section 2). 8

QUOTATIONS

Short quotations should be inserted in the text using double quotation marks: “xxx.” Extensive quotations (longer than three lines) should be given as a separate paragraph using the format ‘long quotation’: long quotation xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xx

3

xxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx end of long quotation.

The following style should be used for quotations in the text: (Iverson 1983) or (Iverson 1983:196). When the name of the author is given in the text, do not repeat it: Johnson (1989) … When quoting more than one author/editor, give the family name of the first author/editor only and add et al. (Johnson et al. 1989). 9

EXAMPLES

Longer examples, transcriptions, lists of examples, or examples that will be referred back to should be given in a separate paragraph and numbered (use ‘long example’) (1) This is my first example. (2) This is my second example. 10 FOOTNOTES Use the footnote editor of your text processing software and the style ‘footnote’ for the text of the footnote proper. Keep footnotes to an ABSOLUTE minimum. 11 SPECIAL

MATTERS

Insert charts, diagrams, tables, pictures, video clips, audio files… where they belong in your text. You can use any file-format; just make sure it will work in the pdf-version of your paper. In case you have to use a link to another file (e.g. audio data), make sure you include that file when submitting your paper. Do make sure that the items are not copy-righted by a third person. The author(s) will be held liable if problems arise. 12 REFERENCES The bibliography should only contain items referred to in the body of the article. The style follows the initiative for a unified style sheet in linguistics journals

(https://cf.linguistlist.org/pubs/tocs/index.html). Use the following examples as models for your reference section. Do NOT number the bibliography like a section of your paper (use ‘heading: references’). Insert four carriage returns (four empty lines) before your references section. Do not forget to link internet sources. Use ‘Hyperlink’ as format.
