Abstract
The article examines the emergence and consolidation of electrical terminological units in the compared languages: Russian, German, and French, through the use of frame analysis based on the sublanguage of electrical engineering. The authors attempt to unify professionally labelled units according to a thematic principle that establishes a connection between the group under study and the practical functioning of electrical terms. This is achieved by relying on existing communities of objects and phenomena of objective reality, as reflected in language. The analysis is based on statistical data identified during the research process. This statistical data is supported by the quantitative characteristics of a specific frame model presented in the work, which serves as the basis for assessing the importance of certain frames for participants in the field of electrical engineering. The study confirms the hypothesis that the identified subframes not only determine the direction of grouping nominative term units but also highlight the significance of certain term groups for technical professionals.
