Essential Courtroom Vocabulary in English

If you watch crime shows, read legal news, or plan to work in a law-related field, learning courtroom vocabulary is essential. In this video, we teach you four of the most common legal words used in English-speaking courtrooms: judge, lawyer, evidence, and defendant.

Each word is explained clearly, with an easy-to-understand definition and an example sentence. For example, the judge is the person who makes the final decision in a case. A lawyer helps defend or accuse someone in court. Evidence is any kind of proof that supports a case. And the defendant is the person accused of a crime.

This video is great for intermediate English learners who want to build specific vocabulary for legal situations or TV shows. It’s short, engaging, and focuses on words you’ll hear often in court-related contexts.

Watch the video, repeat the words, and improve your English one legal term at a time. Whether you’re studying for fun or for your future career, this lesson will help you speak English more confidently.
