Summary

e relationship that exists between language and law is a classic topic. us, the exis-

tence of a language in which Law should be express- like Latin in the Roman system- its le-

gislative technique and the theory of interpretation, is an aspect that must be assumed from

the basic sciences (History and Interpretation eory) of Law; but it radiates its eects to its

application from a dynamic perspective. Comparative Law has addressed the relationship

between language and law as one of the premises for the in-depth study of the discipline,

and for the comparison between systems or legal gures or norms belonging to dierent sys-

tems. e creation of new legal protection areas and disciples (Bio-Law, Computer Law,

Consumer Law) generates an apparent entropy in legal language, from traditional catego-

ries uses, semantic expansion of them to cover new assumptions, new terms adoption from

other languages, reception of neologisms, and even the legal speech transformation from new

considerations such as those coming from the traditional protection of disable persons and

gender inclusive language.

Keywords

Language, theory of interpretation, Comparative Law, Translatology.

nel determinare le caratteristiche che contraddistinguono il linguaggio giuridico, influenzando anche altre

lingue antiche, come il greco, che necessitavano di tradurre dal latino una terminologia giuridica precisa.

studiosi della materia sottolineano come alcuni termini giuridici greci acquistarono solo nel tempo valore

univoco, mantenendo un certo margine di oscillazione. È vero però che la terminologia giuridica greca
