Sažetak
Similar to general English language in which noun-noun compounds are considered the most productive word-formation process they are also used extensively to name new entities in English specialized discourse. Nominal compounds appear more often in scientific texts when compared to other varieties, and thus it may be said that they are a distinctive feature of written specialized discourse. This paper will provide some examples of terminological noun-noun compounds from the field of civil engineering in order to point to the importance of specialized knowledge in the meaning construction of terminology. In addition, the examples will show that we conceptualise new technical entities by means of those extralinguistic entities that are of relevance to us. In other words, in order to decode the meaning of a terminological compound one should possess the appropriate specialized and encyclopaedic knowledge.
