Abstract

Introduction: based on the works in the field of legal technology, philology and linguistics, the paper demonstrates the social dichotomy in which, on the one hand, the importance of a special verbal form of presenting regulatory prescriptions is recognized, and on the other hand, the constant defamation, the marginalization of such a phenomenon as a “special speech of lawyers”. The task is to present the arguments to the thesis about the existence of a special legal language. Methods: the methodological framework for the study is a combination of the following methods of scientific knowledge: the hermeneutical method, the method of consistency and the method of analysis. Results: the author proposes to identify a special semiotic system – legal language. Conclusions: legal language is a special communication, thought-forming and segregation system of signs. The concepts of “legal language” and “state language” are synonymous. Each developed branch of law has its own legal dialect.
