Summary/Abstract: The paper belongs to linguistic research devoted to the terminology used in speech therapy. The author discusses lexemes referring to pathological pronunciation accompanied by abnormal nasal resonance. He indicates and discusses words of foreign origin (mainly Hellenisms and Latinisms) as well as using native words taken from dictionaries and studies devoted to the old Polish language and dialects. Moreover, he mentions names referring to a man who speaks indistinctly, through his nose, citing common words and anthroponyms that remain a testimony to the sensitivity and linguistic culture of our ancestors.
