The paper aims to review the essential issues pertaining to the field of term phraseology, a linguistic discipline studying recurrent word combinations with a term, referred to as terminological phrases, and considered within a legal context. It outlines the genesis and theoretical underpinnings of term phraseology, noting that the latter need further elaboration. Also, I briefly present selected linguistic properties of terminological phrases that manifest their complexity, with a focus on verb-noun collocations (e.g. to subscribe for shares). The considerations that follow fall within the domain of legal linguistics and include references to selected research on phraseology in legal discourse. It is noted that legal phraseology lacks coherence. Particular attention is paid to the function and structure of term-embedding collocations, i.e. collocations which embed terms in the text. Last but not least, an attempt is made to address the significance of terminological phrases in legal communication and to indicate its various dimensions, such as conceptual, legal, cognitive, stylistic as well as related to competencies of language users. The discussion of the subject matter treated in the article is accompanied by examples in Polish and Spanish.
