Abstract

As people became more aware of the world around them, over time they involve various medical terms into their lexicons, and later the field of medicine was formed and developed as a field of science, resulting in a rich medical terminology. Thus, scientific medical terminology was formed, which expresses broader concepts. The term  is a linguistic (verbal) mechanism expressing a scientific concept and the influence of two systems (linguistic and scientific knowledge system). Such a systematic direction of terminology has justified its research from a systematic approach to its use. In the context of the modern scientific paradigm focused on description of terminology and systematic methods of describing systems, aimed not only at describing linguistic phenomena, but also at finding reasons that explain their nature, it is also replaced by methods of cognitive modeling of terminology, which leads to the discovery of factors that affect their nature.
