Lexical-Semantic Features of Fisheries Terminology in Linguistics

Abstract

This article examines the lexical-semantic features of fisheries terminology from a linguistic perspective. The study focuses on the structure, meaning, and classification of terms used in the field of fisheries. It analyzes the processes of term formation, including derivation, compounding, borrowing, and semantic change. The research also explores semantic relations such as synonymy, polysemy, and homonymy within fisheries terminology. Special attention is given to the role of borrowed terms and their impact on the development of the terminology system. Furthermore, the functional usage of fisheries terms in professional and scientific discourse is discussed. The findings indicate that fisheries terminology is a dynamic and systematically organized subsystem of language that reflects both linguistic processes and developments in the field. The study contributes to a better understanding of specialized vocabulary and its role in effective communication.
