Law and language are mutually related and interconnected. The comprehensibility of legal texts is directly affected by the clarity of its individual provisions. The more clauses a sentence contains, the more difficult it is for the percipient to perceive its meaning. The complexity of sentences and their compound structure is typical of legal texts, compound sentences are, in fact, a quintessential feature of legal expression.
