The Role of Terminology in Keeping our Identity as Hungarian Professionals
Type of Abstract (select):Abstract (max. 250 words):
Without terminology there is no professional communication and without professional communication there is no transfer of knowledge. That is why we consider that the elaboration of an adequate and accurate Hungarian professional terminology in the countries outside the borders of Hungary is essential to keep our identity as Hungarian scientists, engineers, lawyers, doctors, teachers. One of the main sources of terminology formation is the translation of special texts from the official language of the country (Romanian, Slovak, Ukrainan, Serbian, German, English, etc.). In the paper we will deal with some translation related items of terminology.
