Abstract:
This research critically examines the impact of unjust terms used in the courtroom on the
objectivity of legal proceedings involving victims of sexual violence. By delving into the
linguistic nuances employed during legal discourse, the study aims to identify and assess
the potential biases introduced through language choices. Through an interdisciplinary
approach, it explores the intersection of linguistics and law to propose strategies for
promoting a more objective and impartial environment in the courtroom. The research
emphasizes the importance of language in shaping perceptions, legal outcomes, and
ultimately, the justice delivered to survivors of sexual violence.
