Verbum et Lingua: Didáctica, Lengua y Cultura is an academic and electronic journal of the Modern Languages Department of the University Center for Social Sciences and Humanities at the University of Guadalajara. It is a specialized publication that places special emphasis on didactic, linguistic and cultural issues and perspectives, and accepts articles on research, reflection and pedagogical intervention in five languages: Spanish, English, German, French and Italian. Contributions submitted in other languages are also taken into account.

In an increasingly interconnected world, the use of English as an academic language has become an essential tool for the dissemination and outreach of scientific research. The globalization of academia demands from researchers the ability to communicate their findings in a language that transcends borders. Our electronic journal, Verbum et Lingua, is pleased to announce its special call for papers entitled "Do you speak science? English as an academic language".

This call seeks to explore and discuss the importance of English as a means of scientific communication, not only in terms of dissemination, but also in terms of its linguistic, didactic and cultural implications. We invite academics, researchers and professionals from various disciplines to contribute their perspectives and experiences in relation to this vital topic.

Our thematic axes include:

  1. Linguistics: How does the use of English influence the accuracy and understanding of scientific terminology? What are the common linguistic challenges faced by non-native English-speaking researchers?
  2. Didactics: What are the best practices for teaching academic English? How can scientific English training be improved in academic settings?
  3. Cultural Studies: How does the adoption of English affect diversity and representation in academic research? What are the cultural implications of using English as the dominant language in the academy?
