Reconciling Teaching English for Special Purposes and Legal Concepts

The European Council’s policy of promoting linguistic and cultural diversity in the field of acquisition-teaching of foreign languages, has led to a profoundly modified situation in language learning. With the aim of encouraging mobility among students and teachers in the European education system, pluralinguistic methods, such as TIE-CLIL (Translanguage in Europe – Content and Language Integrated Learning) are used in an attempt to accelerate immersion programmes. However, in an action research undertaken in Legal English at the University of Nice, the conclusion was drawn that language immersion is not always feasible in Law. Therefore an integrated approach, Adjunct CLIL, based on logical observations, a modification of the concept CLIL : ALDIM (Applied Linguistics to another Discipline by Integrated Method), is suggested, to preserve both the quality of the language as well as content of the non-linguistic discipline, Law.
