本文介绍了两项关于科技词汇的研究，一项是使用解剖学文本，另一项是使用应用语言学文本。技术词汇是通过对文本中的单词进行四级评分来发现的。研究发现，无论是在不同的词汇中，还是在连续的词汇中，技术词汇都占有相当大的比例，解剖学类的连续词汇中每三个中就有一个是技术词汇，应用语言学类的连续词汇中每五个中就有一个是技术词汇。相当一部分专业词汇来自《英语词汇表》和《学术词汇表》的前2000个词汇。文章最后提出了一些帮助学习者注意和学习科技词汇的建议。
This article describes two studies of technical vocabulary, one using an anatomy text and the other an applied linguistics text. Technical vocabulary was found by rating the words in the texts on a four step scale. It was found that technical vocabulary made up a very substantial proportion of both the different words and the running words in the texts, with one in every three running words in the anatomy text, and one in every five in the applied linguistics text being a technical word. A considerable number of technical words were from the first 2000 words of English and the Academic Word List. The article ends with suggestions for helping learners notice and learn technical vocabulary.
