Linguistics and Philosophy is a peer-reviewed journal which publishes work addressing meaning and structure in natural language.[1] It is one of top four journals in formal semantics, alongside Natural Language Semantics, the Journal of Semantics, and Semantics and Pragmatics.[2] Papers in the journal tend to emphasize concerns shared by linguists and philosophers, and are intended to be accessible to readers from both fields.[3]

The journal is a continuation of the earlier Foundations of Language which had been founded by Frits Staal in order to encourage interaction between linguists, philosophers, and logicians.[4] The current Editors-in-Chief are Regine Eckardt (University of Konstanz) and Dilip Ninan (Tufts University).[1]
