Forensic linguistics

Forensic linguistics is not a new field, but over the past few years it has become more structured and better defined within the academic and forensic communities. In its broadest sense forensic linguistics means an application of linguistics. There are many branches within linguistics as a scientific study of language. Thus, the linguist might specialize in anything from language acquisition to grammar, language and society – or as in present case – language, crime and the law.

So what is forensic linguistics really? Forensic linguistics is the study, analysis and measurement of language in the context of crime, judicial procedure, or disputes in law. It is the study of any text or item of spoken language which has relevance to a criminal or civil dispute, or which relates to what goes on in a court of law, or to the language of the law itself. Thus the linguist may be called upon to analyze a very wide variety of documents, e.g. agreements relating to any territorial disputes, the quality of court interpreting, an allegation of ‘verballing’ (claims by defendants that their statements were altered by police officers), a disputed will, a suicide note, a ransom demand, etc.

The range of topics within forensic linguistics is diverse but the main research occurs in the following areas: the language of legal texts and the language of legal processes. The study of the language of legal texts encompasses a wide range of text types and forms of analysis. It includes analyzing the linguistics of documents as diverse as Acts of Parliament (or other law-making body), private wills, court judgments and summonses and the statutes of other bodies, such as States and government departments.

Linguists who work with the language of legal process examine language as it is used in cross-examination, evidence presentation, judge's direction, summing up to the jury, police cautions, 'police talk', interview techniques, the questioning process in court and in other areas such as police interviews, amongst other things. Linguists are also called to give expert testimony in a variety of types of cases both in local and international jurisdictions. The vast majority of cases where linguists are involved concern issues of linguistic competence. They provide evidence in trademarkand other intellectual property disputes, identification of the author of anonymous texts (such as threat letters, mobile phone texts, emails), identifying cases ofplagiarism, tracing the linguistic history of asylum seekers, reconstructing mobile phone text conversations and a number of other areas.
