Abstract. The author examines the historical development of legal terminology in the Spanish language, focusing on its multifaceted origins and the lasting influence of various legal systems. Special attention is paid to the 13th century. Central to this exploration is the legacy of Roman law, which laid the foundation for many key legal concepts and terms still used today in the world. Moreover, the author also highlights the impact of linguistic borrowing, particularly from Latin, Greek, English, French, and German languages, reflecting Spain’s complex and rich cultural history. The role of Spanish monarchs, especially Ferdinand III and Alfonso X the Wise, in codifying and standardizing legal language is examined in detail, revealing how their legal reforms shaped the trajectory of Spanish law. By tracing these linguistic and legal influences, the author provides a comprehensive and unique understanding of how historical, cultural, and political factors have influenced the development of Spanish legal terminology. Ultimately, the author offers insights into how the legal language of Spain reflects broader shifts in European legal traditions and continues to influence modern legal discourse in Spanish-speaking countries.
