LANGUAGE OF INSURANCE

ABSTRACT

This text analysis the correlation between language norm and insurance terminology, seeking to identify solutions which will not cloud the comprehensibility of recommended words and expressions, even in the event when a long-term practice has created a habit of using different terms or word forms for certain definitions in insurance industry. Particular attention is paid to prepositional adjectival syntagms such as the risk of shipwreck, property insurance and the like, with the intention to stress that the use of prepositions or their omission is not the matter of style but semantic necessity. The examples from translation practice are provided at the end of the paper with references to the frequent violations of the spirit of the Serbian language.
