Polysemy in English nanotechnology terminology
Abstract
Consideration is given to the polysemy
phenomenon and factors giving rise to polysemy
in the nanotechnology terminology. It is shown that
polysemy is caused both by transfer of a naming unit,
and also by borrowing terms with close meanings
from allied terminologies. One more specific source
of polysemy is revealed. It is observed when a term
in the meaning abstract model develops an additional
meaning practical realization of the model.
