Abstract

The mass invasion of personal computers into our market in the mid-1980s introduced a large number of special words and expressions into the Russian language. Nowadays they are called computer jargon. We describe the classification of computer jargon into thematic groups and analyze in detail the ways it is used to form its terminology. Much attention has been paid to the functions of computer jargon. The article contains many interesting examples of words and expressions of computer jargon.
