We release a new issue, a new image and also open number 4 of Verbeia on Open Journal Systems. Nine professors, scholars who share their articles in this edition of Verbeia have contributed in this issue. Out of  these, six are included in the Linguistics section, and the other three contributors in the Literature section.

With OJS we open up a new panorama in the article management and supervision system. After five years publishing, we could not demonstrate, in the face of the evaluations for the indexations, the veracity of the selection process for the publication of contributions, but with OJS the ceiling has been opened for Verbeia we thought we had reached before, because we can now give ourselves visibility and accessibility, show the freshness of our management in the publication processes and record all communications between authors, reviewers and Committees. This procedure was essential for us to include ourselves in the publication system of the online Academic Journals, to have greater transparency in the policies that govern the publications and to reach the indexation with absoulute clarity in the administration and the distribution of articles for evaluation.

It is amazing how this team has evolved and grown, each professor and researcher making up the Editorial Committee, the Scientific and Evaluating Committee that have exercised and are exercising, to this day, an invaluable work. An asset and an effort that I can only be thankful, and I want to publicly expressed. Verbeia exists thanks to everyone's work, the contributions we receive monthly, together with the perseverance and the commitment of my colleagues.

Verbeia exists because, in this troubled world, we find in the language, in its literature and in its culture, the linguistic wealth that holds peoples, people together, whether from here or there.

I hope this issue is as successful as the previous ones.
