The Cahiers du Cental formatting guidelines

Introduction The Cahiers du CENTAL series are printed in an A5 paper format, after reducing the original format during the editing stage. Therefore, it is important to take great care of the readability of figures, tables and images. None of these should be coloured. The figure captions should be numbered and appear under the figure. En dashes (–) preceded and followed by a space should be used instead of parentheses. Please do not use hyphens as parentheses. These expressions should be italicized : cf., et al., infra, op. cit., ibid., i.e., e.g. The word etc. must be preceded by a comma and not be followed by an ellipsis (…). Long citations should form a paragraph (CENTAL-citation). Ex.: This paper details the author’s plans for and progress with compiling and analyzing a new gigaword English corpus from the web to complement his BNC-based online database “Phrases in English”.

Tables, figures and images should comprise a caption. Use bold, underlined or upper-case words as little as possible, so as not to impair readability. Communication title (CENTAL-Title Article)
