The terminology of a particular field of science or technology is highly specialized structure. At each historical stage in the development of geology, the number of lexical units of geological terminology is commensurate with the mass of acquired knowledge. With the growth of knowledge, the need for new terms increases, which is partially offset by borrowing terms from other areas of knowledge and to some extent satisfied by the formation of new terms. The article is about the term system of geology. It tries to describe the phenomena inherent in Geology and the problems of their their translation. Texts related to geological science are very difficult to study, and not only ordinary people experience difficulties in acquaintance with one of these texts, but also difficulties arise among specialists. Geological systems of terms are of great importance not only for our country, but also for the whole world. , since the development of the earth's crust is carried out in all corners of the globe.
