This article deals with structural peculiarities of the terms belonging to the field of translation studies. Word-formation and structural organization of a certain vocabulary provides deeper insight to the nomination processes. This allows not only more qualitative understanding of the named phenomena themselves, but also provides some field for further studies on translatability of these terms. Translation was always an essential part of cross-cultural communication and knowledge dissemination. However, it experienced (and is still experiencing) a major boost with the development of science and technologies. Therefore, translation acquired not only new techniques and equipment for more efficiency, but also new terms to operate its notions. Taking into consideration that translation terms have not been studied enough, it stipulates the topicality of the research. In particular, this article deals with the word structure of such terms.

Terms-word-combinations were grouped by their structural models that were determined according to what part of the speech the included components belong to. Based on the obtained quantitative results, a conclusion what made as to productivity of a certain model.
