Abstract

This article is devoted to the legal discourse and its study in linguistics, and contains essential information on the stages and approaches to the study of legal discourse. In fact, although this type of institutional discourse, considered a subject of forensic linguistics, has so far been examined by many foreign linguists and lawyers, it is not yet studied in Uzbek linguistics based on a pragmalinguistic approach. Indeed, this shows the relevance of the topic. Therefore, the article initially provides examples of the study of legal discourse within the framework of three approaches, as well as an overview of its goals and objectives, which are different aspects from other types of discourse. Undoubtedly, the linguistic analysis and scientific resesarch of legal discourse is of great importance today since it covers all aspects of life. Thus, the study of the relationship between language and law has become a subject of research in many fields, including linguistics. Legal discourse is a kind of institutional discourse, which consists of all legal structures; both oral and written legal texts applied within them and their specific professional terms, and follows all the rules and norms of legal language and legal speech.
