Taking as a point of departure Eugenio Coseriu’s distinction between common lexicon and terminology, on one hand, and that between folk terminology and scientific terminology, on the other hand, I tried to present in this article a few relevant moments and aspects regarding the (rigorous and objective) historical attempt to separate the botanical scientific terminology from the botanical folk terminology. For that reason, I took advantage, once again, of Coseriu’s linguistic theory, since it takes into account the botanical terminology, too.
Key words:
Coseriu, Linné, scientific terminology, folk terminology, botanical terminology
