Beschreibung

This book is for students who need to read and use legal English vocabulary: it aims to help learners develop their legal English vocabulary. It presents vocabulary in the context of the legal systems in the UK because the meaning of any legal terms and the conceptual relationship between terms is located within a specific legal system.

The book concentrates on the vocabulary arising from the practice of commercial law (including company law, contract formation, employment law, sale of goods, real property, and intellectiual property) but also presents more general legal English vocabulary. The legal topics covered are common to many legal systems and in that context the book has an international dimension. There are references in most units of the book to English language websites to help you extend your language practice and to assist your understanding of legal concepts in English in authentic contexts.

It is suitable for learners who have reached an upper-intermediate or advanced level of English.
