Why traditional terminology theory impedes a realistic description of categories and terms in the life sciences
On the basis of an empirical study of categorisation and lexicalisation processes in a corpus of English language scientific publications in the domain of the life sciences, we claim that traditional terminology theory (the Vienna school) has five principles which impede a realistic description of many categories and terms. We propose an alternative socio-cognitive terminology theory inspired by cognitive semantics.
