Abstract:

The terminology system of Chinese terminology science is one of the basic tasks in the construction of terminology science with Chinese characteristics. This article combs the historical evolution of the national terminology standard ISO 1087, compares and analyzes the conceptual architecture, head terms, and definitions of basic terms, and points out that the theoretical basis for the formulation of the international terminology standard is general terminology theory. The basic terms in the general terminology theory have entered the Chinese language and can be used as the basis for the establishment of the terminology system of Chinese terminology science. The unique types of language and texts, the influence of different scientific traditions, the progress of terminology standardization work, the understanding of terminology in different subject areas, and the theoretical and methodological contributions of related disciplines become restrictive factors in building a unique terminology system of Chinese terminology science.This paper believes that the terminology system and the discipline of Chinese terminology science show a trend of parallel development, and the two support each other.
