Summary/Abstract: An increasing stream of texts about information technologies (IT) in the Lithuanian language usually translated from the English language makes the research of frequentative use of terms of computer science more relevant and important to the present. The present article reviews single-word terms (borrowings, derivatives, loan-translations, terminologized Lithuanian words) within the aspect of mathematical linguistics or linguostatistics. The interaction of the English language and the Lithuanian language as the cause of origin of a great many new scientific terms in the Lithuanian language is emphasized.
