Summary/Abstract: The author analyzes the current terms for the »appliance for freezing food in«: ledenica and zamrzivač. Their expressive and content-related shortcomings are pointed out. A new term, smrznica, is proposed, bringing into harmony the process described as smrzavanje and the term smrznuta hrana. The term smrzavač is reserved for the device built into the »appliance for freezing food in«, which is the true effectuator of the process of freezing.
