Jana Ukušová - A HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF TRANSLATION-ORIENTED TERMINOLOGY IN CANADIAN TERMINOLOGY: SCIENCE (pag. 83-89)

The paper deals with the origins of translation-oriented terminology in Canada and the role it plays in the Canadian terminology of science. We define the concept of translation-oriented terminology with regard to other new approaches to terminology research. We provide background information on language policy in Canada to determine the main factors that have shaped translation-oriented terminology development at the very beginning. We also try to identify those factors which later ensured that terminology becomes an autonomous discipline in Canada with an undeniably important place in translation-oriented terminology.
