Summary/Abstract: Management is relatively new and unexplored field in this part of the world economy. Thus, the professional language of human resource management itself is largely undefined. The vocabulary of management found in referent texts in English is abundant with euphemisms and idioms. That is one of the reasons why these words cannot be adequately translated into Serbian. The authors have researched the level of inadequacy in use of foreign language expert terms in Serbian. The acquaintance with the certain number of foreign language expert terms has been examined among students of management. Finally, the authors have suggested how to standardise the vocabulary of management terms used in Serbian.
