Adjective CEFR B1

Definitions

Not connected with the law.

Examples

“In one respect, besides the greater regard which I retain for “words,” my sequestered unlegal, i. e. unlaw-mingled life (a terrible compound epithet that, I must own) has given me an advantage over you in keeping alive my tendency to see loveabilities in people, and thus to add to my stock of comforts; for I do not the less love old friends—quite the contrary—for when good-heartedness survives all trials and exacerbations, where can loveability be so well proved?”
“1984, United States. Congress. House. Committee on Armed Services. Subcommittee on Military Installations and Facilities, Hearings on H.R. 4931 (H.R. 5604), to Authorize Certain Construction... I think what we are talking about is this whole question of the legislative veto which is the Supreme Court decision has, if I can use an unlegal term, thrown into a cocked hat.”
