Single-Word Terms and Word-Groups in the Basic Vocabulary of the Terminology of Mechanics in the Albanian Language

Abstract

Among the terminology of the various fields of knowledge, especially the science of applied sciences, the terminology of mechanics constitutes a vocabulary of special research interest. On the one hand this relates to the mechanics itself as a technical base of science with a wide application range within its own goals, while, on the other hand, its integration into many other areas of knowledge, while, on the other hand, with its integration into many other areas of knowledge, starting with the more traditional areas (electricity, construction) as well as with the most modern ones (electronics, computer science, etc.). In addition, the core concepts of all fundamental sciences such as mathematics, geometry, physics and chemistry lie at the base of its theoretical and practical basis. This complex and diverse connection of mechanics, as a science with many fields of knowledge makes its terminology vocabulary widely applicable and as such has attracted and continues to attract the attention of terminology researchers. From this point of view, all the single-word terms (word terms) would be accepted as the basic vocabulary of the terminology of mechanics. This may be furthered by the fact that almost every word term serves as the basis for the formation of many terms of the word-groups, which mark the concepts disassembled into multiple branches, being introduced in different relationships, such as gender / type , whole / part etc. In this paper, we will accept not only the terminological naming units, expressed by the nouns and the word-groups with nominative base, but also the units expressed by other parts of the word elements, especially when they express the specificity of the field and connect with the word terms in the word formation system such as couple and (to) couple-coupled; axis-axial-axially (Alb. çift  çiftëzohet-i çiftëzuar; aks and aksial-aksialisht)
