The Identity of Technical Terminology as a Special Unit in the Vocabulary of the Albanian Standard Language

Abstract

Since the creation of lexicology, as a special language science, the terminological vocabulary has been distinguished as part of the general vocabulary, but its research has been done in the context of the entire language vocabulary. Over time, especially the last seven to eight decades, in languages with developed terminology ​​(German, English, Russian, etc.) the terminology has been separated and identified as an integral part of the language, and special national and international studies have been carried out for this purpose by researchers from a range of institutes of terminology (in Vienna, Russia, Prague) and well-known scientists like Wüster, Felber, Sager. In this respect, studies were also conducted in Albania after 1955, and by the establishment of the terminology department at the Institute of Linguistics and Literature terminology dictionaries have been drafted, and after a few years in Kosovo as well. However, terminology studies were mainly carried out in the context of general vocabulary, but the terminology vocabulary was the main focus.
