1822 March 1
Civil Code

Form Language

So far as regards clearness,
concern correctness,
and compleatness altogether indispensable
in the consideration
of language &
the consideration of
law: as of in the form
given to the language
depends the effect of
whatsoever is intended
to be done in the way by means of
of law.

Example. The exclusion
of ambiguity, one of
the effects of clear
clearness

Limitation clause
be it imbedded in
or prefect to the clause
it is designed to limit,
not placed between
that and another,
or subjoined to this other

Parliaments shall be
held once a year
or oftener if need
be.

This perhaps the most
important instance of
imperfection in language
that ever appeared.

The very construction
however was but a pretence:
for only by
the right construction
can this provision be
rendered may they better
then be necessary one.

If on the part of the legislature
in question appropriate
intellectual aptitude in adequate
degrees and quantity
already exists,
this work is as to them so far of
no use.

So likewise, whatsoever
be the demand in respect
of and of apparopriate
information, if
in so far as he whose
endeavours are thus
directed to the administration
of it is destitute
of appropriate aptitude
with reference to the
such operation of it.

But if any such – the question in
question
need has place,
the form here employed
the form of question
and answer – of late
years systematized
and distinguished
by the appellative
of the interrogative
system seen by experience
and
to be determined
to be the most apt.

The class of learners &
in whose instance it has
most been employed
is the class of those the
of immature in intellect
by of immaturity
of age. But of official
even under the greatest
disadvantage what
from that cause can
have place, how can
it be otherwise this
and in a proportionably
superior degree
as applied to all other
ages – degrees on the scale
of maturity? how on
it, unless the case be made
that the facility of in the case of maturation of age as such, that as it were not of more wantonness or towards the less easy and less effective should be preferred to the more effective.

Form Language

In what sense the
language here employed
is an appropriate and
peculiar language.

Is no more than the vernacular
language: only
put into a state subservient
to clearness,
correctness, conciseness
and compleatness.

1. No word which has
not already its root in
the language. This for
immediate clearness,
with reference to all whose
vernacular language it
is.

2. Words of later origin
employed i preference.
This for do with reference
to all whose vernacular
language is a language
principally derived from
the Latin.
