Аннотация:
This article delves into the specialized word formation processes in legal and medical discourses and their far-reaching impact on professional communication. Within these domains, the use of classical roots, affixation, compounding, and neologisms is indispensable for achieving precision and clarity. While these linguistic intricacies enhance communication among experts, they also pose challenges in interdisciplinary settings and when communicating with non-specialists. The article reviews the literature on word formation in legal and medical contexts, highlighting the influence of classical languages and the role of affixes in shaping terminology. It also discusses the broader implications for professional communication and offers recommendations for making communication within and beyond these domains more inclusive and effective.
