Sažetak
The paper presents the concept of minimum vocabulary, research and methodology of arriving at a minimum vocabulary, and the applicability of the concept of minimum vocabulary to Maritime English. Also, reference is made to such limited vocabulary lists as GSL, AWL etc. Refernce is also made to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, teaching, assessment, issued by the Council of Europe. The paper aims to raise the issues in establishing minimum vocabulary requirements in Maritime English for various purposes: a BSc course in Nautical Studies and Marine Engineering ; levels of competence as per STCW convention, etc. Group and final panel discussion is envisaged on some topics such as the vocabulary for the support, operational and management level, naming concepts, compounds and collocations, lexical families and lexical sets.
