The Journal of Modern Languages (JML) is an international peer-reviewed, open access journal published by the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics at Universiti Malaya in Malaysia. It is devoted to publishing research reports and discussions that represent an important contribution to current understandings of central issues in the broad field of modern language studies. Founded in 1983 as Jurnal Bahasa Moden, the Journal primarily published papers annually that describe scientific studies of language use, processing and development. In 2019, JML began to welcome the submission of manuscripts in the form of review papers and meta-analyses, and from 2020, the Journal has started publishing two issues per year, in July and December.
JML aims to report state-of-the-art research and to provide a forum for both established experts and emerging talent. The Journal encourages interdisciplinary approaches to language research and acts as a reference for all those interested in modern language studies.
Focus and Scope: JML welcomes papers in (but not restricted to):
- Applied Linguistics (language learning & development)

Peer-review Policy: Manuscripts submitted to JML first undergo editorial screening, followed by peer review by at least two anonymous reviewers.
