《方言》是中国社会科学院语言研究所主办的语言学专业杂志，1979年2月24日由北京商务印书馆正式出版第1期，是为创刊号。《方言》不仅在中国语言学界是唯一一份研究方言的专业杂志，也是世界语言学史上唯一一份以方言调查研究为主题的专业杂志。
《方言》杂志的创刊出版还有着特殊的历史意义。由于十年“文革”的折腾，中国语言学同所有学科一样，人才凋零，万马齐喑。一九七九国家开始拨乱正，中国语言学研究开始复苏，并逐渐进入正常发展的轨道。汉语方言调查研究作为中国语言学的一个历史悠久的独立学科，迎来了全新发展的历史时期。所以，《方言》创刊也是20世纪中国语言学发展和复兴的标志性事件之一。
中国是一个文明古国。汉字，汉语，汉语方言既是中华文明数千年一脉相承的载体，又是中华文明数千年一脉相承的产物。因此，为使用人口十几亿，承载数千年中华文明的汉语方言创办一个专业杂志，也是传播和宏扬中华文化、彰显国家文化软实力的一个重要组成部分。
《方言》杂志是一个面向国内外，以登载方言调查和方言研究成果的学术期刊，每期128页，全年四期，共512个页面。每年二月、五月、八月、十一月的24日在北京出版，向国内外发行。
《方言》杂志提倡实事求是，注重调查，相互切磋的严谨学风，强调方言事实的描写和方言特点的挖掘，注意把方言研究从一般描写逐步引向深入探讨，《方言》杂志创刊以来，相继发表了一大批有较高学术价值的学术论文和调查报告，在培养和发现方言研究人才，提倡和引导方言研究方向方面也发挥了积极作用，在海内外语言学界都有广泛影响，是一个享有世界声誉的语言学专业杂志。
