- Title
Linguistics research articles written in English: comparing native English speakers and Polish writers.

- Abstract
This paper addresses the issue of writing for publication in English to elucidate, on the one hand, how writing styles of scholars from two cultural regions - Polish and Anglo- American - differ at the level of article structure. On the other, it explores the extent to which internationalizing forces inside one discourse community (specialists in linguistics) can override differences. For this purpose, a qualitative, cross-linguistic and cross-cultural study was conducted to compare texts written in English by native speakers with such articles by Polish authors. The issue is increasingly significant because current scientific progress and globalization has stimulated the need to share research findings in all fields of science using English as the main language of international publication.
