THE LANGUAGE OF LEGISLATIVE ACTS
Abstract
Teaching language for specific purposes is the basis of the MGIMO Bachelors’ and Masters’ language education. However, it is experts on language and teaching rather than specialists in the sphere of law that are engaged in this work. The author of this article shares her experience of mastering a new specialization and applying her linguistic knowledge to it.It is creating educational resources that requires not only careful selection of authentic texts, defining specialized lexical base, but also viewing these texts as a complex syntactic whole, possessing its own structure and constituting a language unit that can be modeled. Linguistic perception of specialized texts facilitates the creation of practice-oriented educational resources, the application of which results in university graduates’ ability to use the language of their profession properly.The main conclusion from the results presented in this research shows that the dependent clauses act as the limiting ones. This allows you to add unambiguity and clarity to professional language. Simultaneous accesses to the world of reality and the world of language explains its primary role in verbal and cogitative human activity and puts the sentence as the basic unit of speech in the center of the "language - thinking" system, relating thought and language structures in the overall implementation of the communicative function of language.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12731/2218-7405-2013-6-6
