Abstract
The linguistic analysis that was carried out
has shown that certain typographic units in
the Croatian language originated in the French
language. Those loan words have suffered certain
semantic changes on their way from the source
language to the receiving language. Models that
some gallicisms are based on and which are a
part of the Croatian typography terminology
are considered archaic in French and are not in
use any more. The influence of German as an
intermediary language has also been strongly
emphasized.
Keywords
