Abstract

This article explores the importance of English terminology in light industry for professional communication, teaching, and learning. As a global sector, light industry relies on precise terminology to facilitate effective collaboration, enhance knowledge transfer, and improve workplace efficiency. The study highlights the role of English as a lingua franca in specialized fields and examines strategies for terminology acquisition, including contextual learning, multimedia tools, interactive methods, and digital resources. Findings suggest that integrating these approaches enhances comprehension, fosters professional competence, and bridges the gap between education and industry needs. The article underscores the relevance of terminology mastery for educators, students, and professionals, emphasizing its impact on both academic success and career development.
