[1]. This is also known as terminology science. Terms are words and compound
words or multi-word expressions that in specific
contexts are given specific
meanings-these may deviate from the meanings the same words have in other
contexts and in everyday language [2]. Terminology is a discipline that studies,
among other things, the development of such terms and their interrelationships within
a specialized domain. Terminology differs from lexicography, as it involves the study
of
concepts, conceptual systems and their labels (terms), whereas lexicography
studies words and their meanings. Terminology is a discipline that systematically
studies the "labelling or designating of concepts" particular
to one or more subject
fields or domains of human activity. It does this through the research and analysis of
terms in context for the purpose of documenting and promoting consistent usage.
Terminology can be limited to one or more languages (for example, "multilingual
terminology" and "bilingual terminology"), or may have an interdisciplinary focus on
the use of terms in different fields.
Terminology in the field of agriculture is directly related to the ongoing socio-
economic processes in society. In today's world, the media is facing huge changes in
the agricultural sector in the context of various climate changes, socio-political
events,
complex economic processes, as well as pandemics. In order to cover these
processes, the media regularly "collide" with the terminology of the agricultural
sector. That is why we inevitably come across terms related
to agriculture in the
speech of politicians, journalists, diplomats and even ordinary people.
It should be noted that the use of agricultural terms is one of the most pressing
issues today, as its widespread and systematic use in the media due to various climate
changes, socio-political events and interstate conflicts shows that this sector is always
in the spotlight. In addition to the fact that the terminology of the agricultural sector
is used in different texts (discourse), in different situations (contexts), it is natural that
it is also used in scientific and technical fields with a tradition of rapid development.
Agricultural terminology of the English language is
a subsystem of developing
terminology of agriculture. It is widely used all the resources of the national English:
word-forming elements, neologisms, phrases and prepositional postpositional
arrangement of
particles, rethinking a generic term, and others.
Terminological vocabulary is one of the main ways to replenish the
vocabulary of the language. Indeed, the complexity of
structures of agricultural
machinery, these of scientific advances in agronomy, chemistry and biology cause the
appearance of many new terms. The main drawbacks of the agricultural terminology
course are:
- Ambiguity (polysemy), when the same term is used to refer to different
concepts.
