DOI: A review of the history of research on terminology with Chinese characteristics
Safarova Iroda , Doctoral Student, Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, UzbekistanAbstract
This article traces the emergence and development of terminology research in China, and argues that terminology research in China has gone through three historical periods: from the study of scientific and technological translation theory, the study of terminology ontology to the systematic, comprehensive and healthy development, and focuses on its representative characteristics. The paper describes the development process and status of terminology from two aspects: theoretical research and applied research. The research in terminology theory arose from the need to normalize scientific and technical terminology, and the theory of terminology guided and enriched the practical work. In the field of applied research, we combined the theory of terminology with China’s national conditions and widely applied it in the practical work of normalizing nouns and terminology, and gradually penetrated into the fields of news publishing, foreign language translation and dictionary compilation, achieving great results.
