Mastering the language of law is not limited to memorizing terminology, also it requires an understanding of the legal system, historical development, and cultural foundations underlying these terms. In the context of multilingual education, this issue becomes particularly relevant, as legal concepts in different languages do not always fully correspond to one another. This study aims to reveal the underlying nature of these differences through a comparative analysis of legal terminology in Kazakh, English, and Turkish. The results of the analysis show that terms which appear similar on the surface may carry different legal meanings in each language, while some concepts may lack equivalents altogether, demonstrating that they are specific to particular legal systems. This phenomenon is referred to as terminological asymmetry and is shaped not only by linguistic factors but also by legal and cultural contexts. Accordingly, mechanical memorization of terminology is insufficient; it is necessary to understand the context of use and the legal function of each term. The study substantiates the need for a new approach to teaching legal terminology. Through comparative analysis, learners not only identify differences between legal systems but also develop the ability to critically understand legal concepts. Mastering terminology within its legal and cultural context enhances analytical thinking and enables effective participation in multilingual professional environments.
