  • Manuscripts should be submitted in one Microsoft Word document to the following e-mail address: cltcee@btk.elte.hu.
  • The manuscript should be organized in the following order:

1.Title, author names and affiliations, ORCD iD

2. Abstract and keywords

3. Main text (with tables and figures)

4. Appendices (if relevant)

5. Bibliography

  • As papers are double-blind peer reviewed, the main text file should not include any information that might identify the authors.
  • The length of manuscripts should be 12–25 pages (if different, consultation with the editors is required). The document should be formatted as follows: paper size A4, margins 2.5, line width 1.5, font Times New Roman (MingLiu for Chinese characters), and font size 12 in the main text and 10 in footnotes.
  • Please consult the Style Guide before you submit your paper.

Language

The journal publishes articles in both English and Chinese. Please use British English and simplified characters.

Authors writing in their non-native language are advised to have their articles thoroughly copyedited by professionals with native-level proficiency in the article’s language prior to submission.

Abstract

Each manuscript submitted to the journal should begin with an abstract and 8–10 keywords in both English and Chinese, beginning with the language in which the article is written. Each abstract should be 1/4 to 1/2 page in length.

The abstract should be written as a single paragraph without indentation, and it should provide a detailed introduction of the paper's topic, outline the methodological framework, and include the keywords (i.e., keywords also appear in the abstract, not only in the separate list).

Keywords should be separated by a comma. Unless a keyword includes a proper noun, only the first letter in the first keyword should be capitalized.
