Legalese
editHow the two relate? Zezen (talk) 15:43, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- Legalese is an informal term for the cryptic and sometimes counter-intuitive nature of Legal writing or Legal English.[1] Pseudolaw often involves "legal-sounding gibberish".[2] It is covered in the article by the phrase "legalistic gibberish". Without a formal source explicitly discussing the relationship between pseudolaw and legalese, there is not much that can be done to edit the article, and that is the purpose of this talk page.

- Do you not think that this entire article avoids pointing out that law education in schools from 5 year olds to end of secondary school needs raising?
- Also, you ask the difference between pseudolaw and legalese, but as we know, there is a vast difference between legalese words and those same words used in normal, plain English dictionaries such as the Oxford or Cambridge dictionaries. If you were to use a word from the plain English dictionaries in a Court the court would presume different meanings, this highlights that 'gibberish' language is implied depending on how the Court chooses to interpret it. 2A00:23C8:A10E:CE01:44EF:3F71:E339:CE68 (talk) 03:49, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
