Abstract:  The article is devoted to the analysis of the English-language multicomponent terminological units with the terminological elements designating the semantics of colour and light drawing on the example of nanotechnology terminology. The author comes to the conclusion that the English-language nanotechnology terminology, as compared with other terminological systems, is less characteristic of having colour- and light-designations, however their importance cannot be underestimated.

Keywords:  colour, light, terminological unit, terminology, terminological system, nanotechnology, terminological element
