Sažetak
Learning a language does not refer to only learning grammar and vocabulary but also specific terms and phrases as well, characteristic for the target language and very different from the mother tongue of the learner. This is particularly true of the language taught at the tertiary educational level, i.e. language for specific purposes. Collocations usually represent a particular problem since the words that appear together (i.e. collocate) have completely different meanings than they do when they appear by themselves. The major problem areas are teaching, learning and translating specific words as examples of lexical units.The aim of the paper is to explore the importance of collocations found in two particular scientific disciplines, petroleum engineering and aeronautics. The paper tries to show how the core meaning, expressed in one language, is communicated in another, how this non-specific meaning becomes more specific in two different languages and the differences that exist between the two languages analyzed. Apart from the theoretical linguistic approach, the authors try to point out the importance of extra linguistic context, crucial in shaping the actual shades of meaning, and the complex relationship between lexical elements that combine to form collocations used in highly specific, scientific fields.
