Abstract

The article is devoted to the problems of teaching undergraduates of non-linguistic universities professional legal language. The author analyzes the current issues of training lawyers at the present stage, the composition and level of training of students entering the magistracy of law faculties. Based on his many years of experience in teaching the subject to law students at a law school, the author considers and proposes ways and methods of teaching legal translation to enhance its effectiveness. The article also discusses new concepts, such as “artificial intelligence” and “erratology” (error analysis), “legal jargon”, “legal professionalism” and their application in the practice of teaching a professional legal translation.
