Summary/Abstract: In the 1850s, the process of standardization was characteristic of Central and South European languages. In accordance with ideas of the Enlightenment, this process was going on in the spirit of purism. The creation of native terminology, above all legal one, constituted an important component of the activity of purists. German–Slavic dictionaries of legal terms influenced the development of Slavic, and non-Slavic, languages greatly. The present study discusses this process of the terminology creation, giving some typical examples.
