specialized words for a subject
All the special words that people use in one subject, job, or area of study.
用法パターン：
the terminology of [a field]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes treat terminology as a countable noun and say things like 'many terminologies'. In this sense it is usually uncountable: say 'specialized terminology' or 'a lot of legal terminology', not 'many terminologies'. Another confusion is mixing up terminology with technology; terminology refers to words, not machines or tools.

The exact words that someone chooses to talk about or describe something.
用法パターン：
the terminology used in [something]
よくある間違い：
Learners may not see the difference between terminology and simple words like words or language. Terminology here focuses on the exact choice of words, often in formal writing. Also, do not say 'a terminology' when you mean 'a term'; a single word or phrase is a term, not 'a terminology'.
類義語
