Language rights – their understanding and implementation are an important element of a state's language policy, constituting a significant issue in the field of research on public policy. Within the scope of these studies, researchers do not agree on an exhaustive list of beneficiaries of these rights and, consequently, on how the catalogue of language rights should appear. The author of the paper aims to attempt to address this issue by proposing a definition of natural language that fully meets the current requirements for developing a legal standard for language rights. The considerations in the work are conducted from the perspective of models for language as an act of communication and R. Ruiz's heuristic patterns in order to clarify the significance of language in society.
