With the development of lexis, we are also seeing a corresponding change and revitalisation of written texts, which are expected to utilise specialised terminology, suited to a specific subject matter and profession. By looking at the formation of the terms, we are able to gain insight into their revitalisation. Although some of Anton Janša's technical texts are seen as influential to this day, the lexis is undergoing constant change, as well as revitalisation, reaffirming the boundless vitality of language. The latter also significantly affects some other areas of expertise which call for an interdisciplinary approach in terms of the lexis and for an examination of its boundaries, including those between technical and general use.
