| Summary: | The study presented in this article investigates the resources of legal terminology used in an important legal document written by the Olomouc court scribe Jindřich Polan. The first part of the study describes the development of German legal terminology in four stages, from the compilation of the ʻSachsenspiegelʼ until the beginning of the 19th century. The second part deals with the characteristics of German legal terms in Polan’s regulations, and the third part discusses the use of legal terminology of Latin origin in the same document. Polan’s approach to Latin loanwords is also analyzed – especially his approach to their semanticization, which is intended to simplify users’ understanding of the text and the morphology of loanwords. |
