TO THE QUESTION OF THE WAYS OF TERM FORMATION IN ARCHITECTURE

Abstract

The article pays special attention to the ways of term formation in architecture. The authors emphasize that with the semantic method, terms are formed by changing the meaning of words that previously existed in the language and giving it a new meaning. The semantic way of term formation includes the expansion and narrowing of meaning. The article shows that such terms appear as a result of semantic shifts. These shifts cause a discrepancy between the old and new meanings and call new concepts. Borrowing is defined by the authors as another productive way to replenish the terminology of the subject field "Architecture". Latin, French, German and Italian are named as the most common languages for borrowing architectural terms. In the architectural terminology of Kazakhstan, there is an active borrowing from the Turkic languages. The significance of this method of term formation is associated with the globalization and integration of internal processes in the architecture itself.
