Summary/Abstract: Technical language and general language cannot be clearly differentiated, this great is the extent to which their mutual relationships are interwoven. Above all, most specialized languages are based on general language. They use the many possibilities of expression that the general language provides them. And vice versa, specialized language has its effects on the general language. This effect has grown stronger and stronger nowadays, as science and technology, through the extended use of technical goods (video equipment, home computers), or by the dissemination of technical and scientific knowledge through the media, have increasingly entered the everyday life of every individual. The purpose of this paper is to draw up an outline regarding some of the particularities of specialized languages.
