EDITORIAL WELCOME FOR VOLUME 19 ISSUE 1 (APRIL 2025)

Welcome to the latest issue of Novitas-ROYAL. Since 2007, Novitas-ROYAL has been recognized by over twenty indexing agencies, including SCOPUS and TUBITAK-ULAKBIM (TR Dizin), for its contributions to the fields of language, literature, and linguistics. We are proud to have published studies from researchers in more than forty countries and have reached at least twice as many readers. These accomplishments would not have been possible without the invaluable support of our readers, reviewers, and authors—thank you.

With this issue, we have initiated our nineteenth volume. The articles present a rich array of studies from different corners of the globe, addressing critical topics in language teaching, literature, linguistics, and education. The findings, insights, and implications of these studies offer meaningful contributions to the academic discourse on youth and language and will undoubtedly serve as a foundation for future research. We hope you enjoy reading the diverse and thought-provoking works featured in this issue.
