SYNTACTIC FEATURE OF LEGISLATIVE TEXTS

The article is devoted to the analysis of linguistic approaches of legal technology. Within the framework of linguistics, legal linguistics deals with legal technology. In Kazakh legal linguistics, there is only the experience of forensic examination. And in legal linguistics, the state language has not yet become an object. In legal technology, there is an opinion that the text of the law has the form of a complex syntactic whole. The compilation of texts of laws in the official language coincides with the syntactic and stylistic figure of the period. Therefore, it is important to show the linguistic features of the period. The period is formed both as a simple sentence and as a complex sentence. The legal texts themselves are constructed in the form of a period. The period is also used in all styles of the literary language. Among them, it is noted that in the official-business style, in legal texts, it is effective and very often used. The articles of the law themselves are in thematic places in the period, and its sections serve as narrators. This is reflected in the enumeration of sections, paragraphs, and the fact that the enumerated parts function as members of a single syntactic unit. The kazakh equivalent of the period, its constituents protasis and apodasis have not been established yet. A proposal has been made regarding the textual formatting of the period in legal texts: since parts of the protasis are written in combination with the apodosis, it becomes clear that they complicate perception and the overall pragmatics of the text, hindering, in particular, easy comprehension. Therefore, we believe that the second part of the protasis should be written on a new line, without inserting a paragraph after the listed apodosis. This would make it more noticeable and its perception faster and easier.

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of linguistic approaches of legal technology. Within the framework of linguistics, legal linguistics deals with legal technology. In Kazakh legal linguistics, there is only the experience of forensic examination. And in legal linguistics, the state language has not yet become an object. In legal technology, there is an opinion that the text of the law has the form of a complex syntactic whole. The compilation of texts of laws in the official language coincides with the syntactic and stylistic figure of the period. Therefore, it is important to show the linguistic features of the period. The period is formed both as a simple sentence and as a complex sentence. The legal texts themselves are constructed in the form of a period. The period is also used in all styles of the literary language. Among them, it is noted that in the official-business style, in legal texts, it is effective and very often used. The articles of the law themselves are in thematic places in the period, and its sections serve as narrators. This is reflected in the enumeration of sections, paragraphs, and the fact that the enumerated parts function as members of a single syntactic unit. The kazakh equivalent of the period, its constituents protasis and apodasis have not been established yet. A proposal has been made regarding the textual formatting of the period in legal texts: since parts of the protasis are written in combination with the apodosis, it becomes clear that they complicate perception and the overall pragmatics of the text, hindering, in particular, easy comprehension. Therefore, we believe that the second part of the protasis should be written on a new line, without inserting a paragraph after the listed apodosis. This would make it more noticeable and its perception faster and easier.
