This article is devoted to the problem of creating geodesic terms by abbreviations, which is relevant in linguistics. As it is known, the lexis created by abbreviations is an integral part of the vocabulary of modern technical terminology, since the current stage of development of science and technology requires the use of abbreviated names in communication. Since most of the new terms are multicomponent, their translation and use in practice create inconveniences. Despite certain difficulties in understanding, abbreviated words are really economical, and, of course, in the process of language communication, complex terms used in abbreviated form then gradually become more familiar among specialists. However, the abbreviated version of each complex name can become a new term only if its semantic integrity and semantic unit are preserved. In the process of language communication, complex terms used in abbreviated form then become more common among specialists over time. Thus, despite certain difficulties in understanding, abbreviations are economical, convenient and promote mutual understanding among specialists, as well as the further development and enrichment of geodesic terms.
