\section{Introduction}
We've provided this template for \LaTeX{} users to submit articles to \textit{Diachronica}. Note that it's very minimal. That's deliberate! It is far easier for the typesetters to typeset your article if there is minimal styling.\footnote{Here's an example of a footnote. Note that we do acknowledgements at the end of the paper, not as footnotes to the title or the first section.} There are a number of points about this template which do not conform to the final style for published articles. However, this template is optimized to make the preparation of the submitted manuscript as straightforward as possible.
Here's an example of a sentence with glossed text.
\begin{exe}
\ex Bardi \hfill\citep[123]{bow12}
\gll Ardiyooloon Bardi ngaanka\\
One.Arm.Point Bardi language\\
\glt `One Arm Point Bardi'
\end{exe}
Note that the translation has single quotes. However, a quotation from an individual ``should have double quotes,'' (me, pers. comm. 2021).
Here's an example of a table:
\begin{table}[ht]
\centering
\caption{Caption} %note table captions go above the table
\label{tab:my_label} \begin{tabular}{cc}
one & a \\ \hline
two & b
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
And here's an example of a figure:
\begin{figure}[ht]
\centering
% \includegraphics{}
\caption{Caption} %note figure captions go below the figure
\label{fig:my_label}
\end{figure}
\section{Other notes}
This template should use XeLaTeX and unicode: here's ŋ, an engma. Here's [daɪəkʰɹʌnɪkʰə]. Feel free to change the font if you don't like junicode.
\section{Conclusion}
In conclusion, we use the \texttt{unified} stylesheet for linguistics. For further details, please consult the style guide, available from the journal's homepage at \texttt{https://benjamins.com/catalog/dia}.
