Semantics refers to the branch of linguistics and logic which focuses on meaning. It can be broadly categorized into lexical semantics and logical semantics. Lexical semantics deals with word meanings and connections between them, and logical semantics focuses on topics such as sense and reference, and presupposition and implication. The legal language refers to any language which is used for the purpose of legal writing. It is different from the day-to-day language in terms of semantics, vocabulary, morphology and syntax. The legal language focuses on consistency, validity, completeness and soundness. This makes the study of meaning within the legal language an important area of inquiry. This study is conducted under the umbrella of legal semantics. This book offers valuable insights into the field of legal semantics. It is an essential reference guide for lawyers, historians, and students seeking to understand the meaning of law and legal language.
