The article deals with the theoretical issues of determining the status of a term as a cogniteme; reveals the specificity of a technical term as an actualizer of a technical and technological complex of knowledge; investigates the laws operating in the terminological space. It is noted that the term as a cognitively determined sign, as a sign of the language of science, is an indissoluble unity of cogniteme and its verbal representation. The author defines such types of derivation as terminological derivation and cognitive-semiotic derivation, which is the basic mechanism of formation and evolution of any terminological system and terminological semiosis in general. Technical terminology is characterized as the verbal-semiotic basis of the modern terminological cluster "Technique and Technology", which is an evolving specialized fragment of the Russian holistic scientific and technical picture of the world.

Key words: term, cognitema, terminological semiosis, cognitive-semiotic derivation, evolution, linguo-cognitive mediator, pragmatics, terminological cluster, metalanguage of technical science
