Aliniere europeană şi derută terminologică autohtonă

Abstract

The present study is intended as a review of some important phases in the process of modernization of the
Romanian literary language. This process is analyzed in terms of linguistic policies determined through inheritance and cultural aspirations as well as through its integration into an European geopolitical area: the separation from the influence of cultural slavonism, distancing from the influence of unassimilated elements of German origin, orientation through the loans of French origin, and recently emerged tendency towards rejection of Anglicisms, as a resistance phenomenon to globalization. In this context, the study includes critical observations on the term inventory (about 3700!) inserted in the 2010 edition of the Code of Occupations in Romania, reviewed according to the European Council recommendations, but with major gaps and lacks in the system of denominative agent names in Romanian, starting with the confussion between, the concepts of "profession" and "function".
