Regina Kvašytė. Mokomasis terminologijos žodynėlis

Regina Kvašytė. Šiauliai: Šiaulių universiteto leidykla, 2005, 148 p. In 2005, a 200-exemplary edition of the TEACHING TERMINOLOGY DICTIONARY was published by doc. dr. The explanatory translation of the Educational Terminology Dictionary prepared by Regina Kvašytė. This is the first attempt to provide a glossary of terms needed for terminology studies. Although the number of terms is not stated in the preface or on the cover page, the glossary should contain over 230 terms. It was reviewed by Dr. A. Auksoriūtė, Head of the Terminology Centre of the Lithuanian Language Institute, and Dr. A. Auksoriūtė, Chair of Lithuanian Linguistics and Communication of the Faculty of Humanities of Šiauliai University. The dictionary is intended for full-time and part-time students of higher education institutions of various specialties, especially for graduate students. The booklet consists of the Preface (4), the introductory part — Structure of the glossary (5), Abbreviations (7) and Contractual signs (7), the main part — Glossary of terms (8-90), indexes of English (91-94), Russian (95-98) and Latvian (99-102) terms. In addition, there are indexes of the terms (103-106) and illustrative words (107-117). At the end of the glossary there are lists of sources (118-120), literature (121-123), additional literature (124-127) and appendices (128-148). As the author writes, “the appendix to the glossary contains diagrams and examples of glossary pages for various fields and types of terms” (6). The learning vocabulary is an alphabetic nesting type explanatory translation. All title articles are spelled. There are no inaccuracies in the spelling. Discussing the structure of the glossary, the author indicates that the origin of international terms is determined “based on international dictionaries of terms” (5), and the list of sources mentions only one dictionary of international words published in 2001. The etymologies of international words are indicated in parentheses. It has been noted that the extension and intensity of international terms differs from the interpretations of origin — lat. extensio ‘extension, extension, extension’ (extension- ), but lat. extensio ‘18extension’ (extensive definition), lat. intensio ‘tension’ (intense definition), though lat. intentio ‘tension, effort’ (infection). There are no etymologies of the two-word terms construction complex (20), grammatical category (34), grammatical relationship (34), cf. grammatical meaning (52) of international connotation. The origin of the words motivation (see action motivation; 21), internationality (37), internationalism (37), lime (38) should be clarified. It is important to understand the origin of the word. Unless in the school garden. 166 The educational terminology glossary also contains terms from word formation, lexicology, and other branches of science, and it is said that it contains terms needed for terminology studies. It does not mention where the definitions are taken from. Perhaps they were written by the author herself... Explanations of the meanings of the terms are given from a new line. The values are usually explained briefly. An interesting feature of the glossary is that the explanations of terms are supplemented with various examples, as the author writes, illustrations (5). The interpretations of the illustrations, i.e. the verb relations of some words, for example: tarifikav-imas (: tarifikuoti; 18) are doubtful. It is obvious that the word tarifikavimas is made not from the verb communicative farifikuoti, but from the past participle tarifikavo (Keinys 1999: 39). There are more such inaccuracies, e.g.: mit-yba (: misti; 45), asmenav-imas (: asmenuoti; 45), emaliav-imas (: emaliuoti; 45) and others. Incorrect interpretations of verb relationships mislead the reader, especially the student. The educational terminology glossary uses a single term and a composite term, e.g.: antonym and lexical antonym, metaphorical term, etc. Moreover, the single-word term of the heading article is followed by a reference to see, indicating that the term is directed to the more representative term to use, in this case, according to the glossary author, the more representative is the single-word term, (74) although the term single-word term is commonly used in the terminology literature. Several terms are correctable. Should not be used daryba, but daryba (KTŽ 1990; Keinys 1999: 115), not a final action, but an end action (KTŽ 1990; Keinys 1999: 115). 1990; Keinys 1999: 109), the following terms should also be corrected: hybrid creation (= creation of hybrids), prepositional creation (= creation of prepositions Keinys 1999: 112), prepositional creation (= creation of prepositions Keinys 1999: 112), creational convenience (= creational convenience). It is unclear why the glossary provides the terms determination, retermination, standardization, termination, transtermination, etc. Since it is customary in terminology to speak about expression, object, and interaction, it is necessary to use terms with the suffix -ation, i.e. determination, retermination, stardartization, termination, transtermination (cf. motivation, denotation, etc.). ir Antonym is defined as: "A singular or composite term or adjective, used in the same field of activity to designate a concept of the same category that is opposed by its essential characteristics. A is a member of the dual opposition, Lithuanian or international by origin." The 1990 CJK antonyms are interpreted as "words of opposite meaning". Perhaps it is more accurate to say not an antonym, but an antonym term. Similarly, the term synonymous 167 is more accurate than synonymous (59). There are some errors in the preface, e.g. : If a term does not form a nest, it is included in alphabetical order (= alphabetically, 5) according to the first element (see KP 2003: 93). The elements of the terms presented in the glossary and the combinations in which they are used are listed in alphabetical order (= according to alphabet, 5) in the index of the terms elements (see KP 2003: 93). The publication was prepared very carefully, only one proofreading error was found — asbestcemenitis (= asbestocementis). These comments do not in any way diminish the value of the Vocabulary of Educational Terminology. It enriches Lithuanian terminology. The comments will hopefully be useful in preparing the next, improved edition of this dictionary. LITERATURE Keinys St. 1999: Common Lithuanian word formation, Šiauliai.
