The present proposal constitutes a follow up of the project @SWitCH: a pilot study funded by the 4EU+ minigrant in 2019. It explored three running research projects and we reviewed their potential to be included in learning programmes. We have come to the conclusion that the RExtractor system for mining legal documents has the greatest potential to be further studied, namely to focus on linguistic structures in legal documents. Our goal is to study syntactic structures in parallel texts of EU legislation from both legal and linguistic perspective and, if possible, to design an interdisciplinary course on sentence diagramming (= syntactic analysis) of EU legislation. It is to analyze if an automatic sentence diagramming can be used as a tool measuring and improving clarity and precision of EU legal acts.
