Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt at creating/recreating a definition of the notion of negotiation. We wished to look closely at how lexicographers attempt to grasp its essence in their descriptions and how it is represented by the authors of publications in this communication practice. The research material consisted of the principal Polish language dictionaries compiled after 1945 and the examples drawn form the professional literature published between 1974 and 2014. This time period was chosen in order to recreate a possibly contemporary understanding of negotiation. Conclusions from such a twofold observation make up a detailed scientific description, centred around the answers to the questions concerning the key words that name the negotiation, its participants, as well as the purpose of negotiation and the relation between parties.
