Abstract
The article focuses on the possibility of forming fictious legal discourse within the discourse of a lesson while teaching a foreign legal language to law students. Fictious legal discourse may develop in certain types of tasks. Basing on the analysis of the tasks performed, legal reasoning and the result obtained, linguistic, cognitive and pragmatic features typical of both real and fictious legal discourse have been described, they are cliches, arguments and cognitive structures (linguistic and legal stereotypes). It has been established that background knowledge and developed cognitive structures specific for real legal discourse are actualized in the fictious legal discourse contributing to proper task resolution and successful professional communication.
