If I were reading this out loud how would I phrase it? For example, I know it's: Section 834c, but how about the "(a)" and the "(1)"?
What would would those be called? Subsection (a)...Subparagraph(a)? And how about the (1)?
Legalfags help me please. And I know there's a lot of you in here.
Eight thirty four C, A, 1.

...Obviously dude.. But if I wanted to long form it and actually preface what the (a) and (1) are actually called, how would I do it?

maybe section a, subsection 1?
The basic unit is the "clause", which can be broken down into "sections" or "parts", which can be further broken down into "sub-sections". Google components of the body of a contract.
So I would say, 'clause 834c, part a, subsection one (or "i" depending on where you are from)'. I wouldn't use 'section' when there are subsections, because it sounds dumb saying section this, subsection that...
At the beginning of whatever code that is from it will tell you in the definition section... This section will tell you all the proper ways to cite as well.
It can vary so looking for one answer may not work
