Terminology appears spontaneously as a result of knowledge accumulation and appearance of special notions and concepts.
The importance of our investigation is determined by the necessity to study the semantics of medical terms. The aim of our year paper is to define the main semantic peculiarities of English and Ukrainian medical terms and their interaction with the words of general language.
The achievement of the aim provides accomplishment of the following tasks:
1) to study theoretical literature on the problems investigated;
2) to study medical terms and their meanings on the basis of explanatory and special dictionaries;
3) to apply the methods of formalized analysis of semantics for building the matrix of semantic space of the English and Ukrainian medical terminology on the background of general language;
4) to define the correlation of terminological and general semantics of lexemes under study.
The object of our year paper is 50 English and Ukrainian medical terms with the explanation of their medical and general meanings.
The subject of our investigation – semantic peculiarities of the English and Ukrainian medical terms.
The language material for the year paper was taken from four dictionaries. The lexical material for our research presents 50 English medical terms the semantics of which we have analyzed from medical
