Summary/Abstract: The principle of cumulation in the inheritance and donation tax, as a legal concept, is an institution with a hundred-year history. Due to law changes and changes in law structure, proper interpretation is very difficult. Obeying the literal interpretation border necessarily leads to an unacceptable result. The solution ensuring the proper functioning of the cumulation rule is to transgress the limits of linguistic interpretation, so that the result of the interpretation would be in accordance with the deep structure of the tax act. In breaking the language border, a specific method of law interpretation can be helpful, method thats taking into account contextualism as well as the coherence of law and the legal and economic structure.
