Abstract
The field of pharmacy is marked by a highly specialized vocabulary that serves as both a means of communication among professionals and a channel for disseminating knowledge to the public. Understanding the semantic features of pharmaceutical terms is essential for effective communication in healthcare settings, where the precision of language directly impacts patient safety and treatment outcomes. This article explores the various semantic dimensions of pharmaceutical terms in English, including their denotative and connotative meanings and contextual usage within the pharmaceutical discourse.
