Abstract: Social science term studies are characterized by multiple layers of research objects and multi-dimensional research perspectives. The research objects cover linguistic systems, conceptual systems and cultural systems, and accordingly their research perspectives involve linguistic, conceptual and cultural dimensions. Different research objects and perspectives lead to different research methodologies, including those employed in linguistics and research on conceptual history and cultural transmission.

Key words: terms in social sciences, term translation, multiple layers, multi-dimensions
