From the Editors

Abstract

On behalf of the membership of the Linguistics Association of Ghana, the editors are proud to present this maiden issue of the Ghana Journal of Linguistics.  We are particularly proud of the line-up of nine internationally distinguished linguists who have agreed to join our Editorial Board. The journal is to appear twice yearly, in January and July. Although it is almost inevitable that many of the papers will be concerned with language in Ghana and West Africa, we would like to emphasize that this is intended to be a peer-reviewed journal of linguistics, not a journal of Ghanaian linguistics or of linguistics in Ghana. There is no restriction as to languages or topics to be dealt with, or theoretical orientation.
