Language and Law

Keywords: law, language, interpretation of law, judicial discretion, spirit of law, letter of the law

Abstract

The article describes the forms of exteriorization of language in law. Language is not considered by the author just as a way of transmitting legal information, but as a guide to the meaning of law. The role of legal definitions in legal services is outlined. Language is correlated with the spirit of the law and the legal process.
