Abstract

The article provides an overview of cognitive research in terminology. The purpose of the research is to analyze the work on the study of the problems of cognitive terminology that arose under the influence of the anthropocentric paradigm, to show the difference between traditional terminology and cognitive terminology, to determine the main provisions of cognitive terminology. The importance of the idea of studying terms from a cognitive point of view can be seen in the following: firstly, the cognitive aspect allows you to study the term from the point of view of cognitive terminology, secondly, cognitive terminology helps to understand the complex and contradictory nature of the term, directs terminologists to study the internal laws of the term, thirdly, cognitive research in terminology promotes the study of a term from a new perspective. The problem of formation, preservation and transfer of professional knowledge from generation to generation through terminological units in the context of the dynamic development of modern science and technology determines the relevance of research work. From a cognitive point of view, terminology is considered as the result of cognitive activity of a specialist, in which professional knowledge is conceptualized and verbalized. The article analyzes the scientific papers that served as the basis for the emergence of cognitive terminology. In these works, we are talking about the theoretical and practical significance of cognitive terminology as cognition and the linguistic picture of the world, the unity of the processes of categorization and naming, discourse and professional discourse, the cognitive-informational nature of the term, everyday and scientific knowledge, professional knowledge.
