Abstract

Abstract:

Based on comparing the update of the entries in the five editions of the Dictionary of Military and Related Terms published by the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the past 3 years, and from the perspective of social terminology and the publication of relevant regulations, we analyze the reasons behind the update of terms related to electronic warfare, cyber warfare, space warfare, theater army and withdrawal operations. Moreover, we put forward that the change of military terminology reflects the update of knowledge in a particular military field, and discuss the important enlightenment given to our army by studying the US military dictionary.

Key words: terminology, US military terms, military terms dictionary
