Terminological issues in phraseology

Cilj je ovoga rada dati sveobuhvatan pregled naziva koji se upotrebljavaju u frazeološkim istraživanjima na ruskome, hrvatskome, engleskome i njemačkome jeziku. Opisujemo uporabu naziva u tim jezicima s obzirom na različite jezikoslovne tradicije, različite teorijske i metodološke pristupe ustaljenim višečlanim leksičkim jedinicama te definicije i klasifikacije jedinica koje se smatraju dijelom frazeologije. U radu pokazujemo da odabir i uporaba specifičnih naziva ovisi o jezikoslovnim tradicijama, teorijskom pristupu i jeziku objavljivanja. Tako se isti naziv upotrebljava za različite vrste jedinica, ali se i jednako definirane jedinice opisuju različitim nazivima. Ta varijacija pokazuje da je nazivlje u frazeologiji podložno istim zakonitostima kao i nazivlje u drugim (nelingvističkim) disciplinama.The aim of this paper is to give a comprehensive overview of the terms used in phraseological studies in Russian, Croatian, English and German. We outline how terminology is used in these languages with regard to different linguistic traditions, different theoretical and methodological approaches to conventionalized multiword expressions, and the definitions and classifications of units which are considered to be part of phraseology. We demonstrate that the choice and use of specific terms depends on linguistic traditions, theoretical approaches and the language of publication. This leads to the same term being used for different units, as well as units with the same definition being referred to by different terms. This type of variation shows that phraseological terminology is subject to the same principles as terminology in other (non-linguistic) disciplines
