description The objective of this article is to elaborate on the significance of linguistic aspects of causation in legal reasoning in Modern English. More specifically, this article elaborates on semantic aspects of causation in legal reasoning. Linguistic aspects of causation in Modern English are instrumental in legal reasoning, particularly elaborating on the expression of the main features of lexical causatives due to their direct causation. A series of events form the causal nexus, in which the relationship is connected via spatiotemporally continuous sequences of causal intermediates. In spatiotemporal relationship of cause and effect, proximity is the criterion, which differentiates the causal connection.
