I don't know what the most prestigious journal is in linguistics is (and I eill be disappointed if it is not called The Tongue), but I feel this paper deserves to be there.

Edit: apparently they are called: Linguistics Syntax and Journal of Linguistics

Imaginative bunch, this is.

    The most prestigious journals for general theoretical linguistics are probably Language, Linguistic Inquiry, and maybe Glossa after the editorial pushback against Lingua about a decade ago for its opposition to open research availability (so you're right that linguists often name their more prestigious journals after words for "tongue"!)

    Either way, my first year paper's analysis would be immediately obvious to any syntactician, and definitely doesn't belong in a journal.

    I appreciate the compliment though. :)
