Rezumat

Specialized jargon has always been viewed as belonging to the realm of the specialized fields of human activity as physics, psychology, mathematics, computer science, etc. Nevertheless the common usage of the language is subject to the influence by the specialized one. This phenomenon is characterized and explained by the fact that specialized terminological units tend to penetrate into the common language alongside with the phenomena they describe. Hence laser (Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is not an acronym which is exclusively used by physicists since it is widely used in common household appliances as remote controls, or computers let alone the science-fiction books. Cognitive dissonance is not exclusively related to the realm of psychology since other sciences have adopted this term in order to describe the phenomena characteristic to them. It is to note that not all the layers of society are prone to use the above mentioned terminological units, they are more likely to be used by people who are cultured and have a certain degree of education. Nonetheless terms like internet, radar and DNA are widely used in different circumstances.
