Sažetak

The study of semantics has long been the domain of different scientists, such as psychologists, philosophers and anthropologists. Only lately, in the 20th century, have linguists taken a serious interest in it, so that gradually we came to know about linguistic semantics. But this deals only with one aspect of meaning, i.e., how weaning is affected by the interrelation of words. This is probably one of the reasons why the linguistic approach has been safely confined only to theoretical aspects of general English, leaving aside language for specific purposes. That is to say, technical terms must consider concepts and referents to a greater extent. Our paper attempts to fill this gap by providing a Semantic structure of maritime English.
