Abstract

The JNLP is a peer-reviewed multidisciplinary academic journal. It publishes serious, wellresearched and original papers or reports in linguistics, languages, literature, culture, information, and technology as well as communication studies, particularly related to
Nigerian languages. It is published every year, and occasional supplements are also published as the needs arise. Manuscripts are received all year round for consideration, and above all, it is an outlet for the work of the Nigerian Languages Project (NLP), some of
which pass through its conference: The Conference of the Nigerian Languages Project (CNLP).

Manuscripts and all correspondence should be sent to:
