Summary/Abstract: The field of terminology is integral to effective communication across disciplines, languages, and borders. The principles of terminology studies are designed to ensure that terms and definitions are used consistently and accurately, facilitating mutual understanding in a globalized world. At the heart of this discipline stands Christian Galinski, whose work over the past several decades has significantly influenced the development and propagation of terminology studies, standardization and cooperation. As Galinski celebrates his 80th birthday, it is pertinent to reflect on his vast contributions to this field, which have left an indelible mark on both academic and practical domains.
