Abstract:

In this paper student Case Notes are analysed to exemplify the degrees of linguistic intricacy that come into play within the context of legal discourse – the ‘target discourse1-and to demonstrate that apprenticeship into this particular academic discourse community involves more than familiarisation with content specific material on the one hand and the control of common English structural conventions on the other. The discussion sets out to show that the intricate and often ‘hidden’ (as in ‘not made explicit’) linguistic demands academic discourses impose on NESB students need to be brought

Abstract:

This article considers the nature of legal English and reviews the literature which is generally relied upon for its linguistic description. While agreeing that legal English can properly be considered a register, it suggests that the seeming consensus in the literature regarding the specific differences between it and other varieties of English rests upon much shakier ground than is generally acknowledged. After identifying the features of legal English which are generally said to define it most strongly as a register, this article presents the results of a small pilot study comparing the pre

Abstract:

The article discusses the research of French terms in Legal English. English has been influenced by French since the Norman Conquest in 1066. Although the Normans were fewer, they removed locals from governmental positions and introduced Old French as a language of the ruling class in England. Courts started to use so-called Law French in their pleadings and hearings – many terms of it are still in use in common law jurisdictions. Law French introduced a huge number of words into English – fee simple, voir dire, fine, warranty, replevin, - just to name a few. It also influenced grammar (word o

Abstract:

Abstract Mediation is a language activity that has been unjustly neglected when preparing law students for their future professional careers. When trained in a professional context, students need to develop and improve complex communicative skills. These include not only the traditional language skills such as reading, writing, listening and speaking, but also more advanced skills such as summarizing, providing definitions, changing registers etc. All these are involved in the students’ acquisition of ‘soft skills’ that are particularly important for students of law since much of their future

The legal profession has relied on a specialised vocabulary, complex sentence structures, and often archaic phrasing.

This lack of clarity can lead to misunderstandings, disputes, and a sense of alienation for indi

Baker's paper marks a punctuation in his study of English law under the early Tudors, a subject which he has made his own, culminating in his magisterial sixth volume of The Oxford History of the Laws of England.

Abstract:

Theorists of law and of social policy distinguish between the efficacy and the impact of laws and legislation. Efficacy concerns the achievement of the effects intended by law-makers. Impact refers to the actual consequences. At times, the two diverge. Sometimes, it is only after a lengthy period that the impact is appreciated. The impact sometimes requires intervention by legislators or judges acting purposively in order to correct unforeseen or unfortunate consequences. The extent of judicial intervention is not always clear from the surviving records. This article argues that an awareness o
