ABSTRACT
This article aims to examine law as a form of language. Therefore, it is a grammatical inquiry. The article has two parts. The first examines, very briefly, what a grammatical investigation means in the context of an anthropology of law. The second describes, also very briefly, the grammar of law. The description is the result of daily coexistence between the author and field participants from a private university in Brasília over 12 years.
