Abstract

Language is a medium that plays an extremely important role in tourism. To meet the needs of tourism activities, and contribute to promoting the process of the integration of Vietnam’s tourism with world tourism, the development of the Vietnamese language in specialized fields is an urgent requirement. This paper clarified the concepts of “travel”, “tourism industry”, “terminology” and “tourism terminology” and which class (or subsystem) of terms the tourism terminology system included. As a result, we could understand the typical features of the terminology itself and propose some solutions to the terminology standardization.
