Keywords:
terminology, terms, traditions, innovations, linguisticsAbstract
First paragraph: For 70 years, since terminology science was singled out as an independent discipline and sphere of activities in the former USSR, it has covered a long way – from tiny sections in publications on lexicology in academic linguistic treatises and sporadic remarks in the works by representatives of natural and technical sciences to the ramified science which employs modern achievements of human cognition in cognitive terminology science, from understanding of terms as a periphery of lexis within national languages to the description of terms as the most important lexical class in the Languages for Specific Purposes (LSP), without which modern culture could hardly exist. In this presentation an attempt is made to exhibit the present state of art in Russian terminology science with special reference to its basic concepts and categories included in the foundation of theoretical and applied terminological activity.
