Turanin, V.Y. Transteminologization as a new problem of modern legal language.

Abstract: Since law is meant to regulate all of the existing social relations, legal language often gains terms from other spheres of knowledge. Currently many terms enter legal language from other professional spheres, or travel from one field of law to another, and their meaning might be altered in this pricess. For example, the term “sanitation” is used in Russian civil law (meaning “reajustment”, for example, in relation to bancruptcy procedure) while its original meaning in medical terminology is “prophylactic measures aimed to make the mouth healthy”. This article is devoted to analysis of transterminologization process in legal language.
