The article takes as its starting point the definition of a specialised language within specialised discourse and thus defines the language of tourism, which is the language of a wide discursive community. This includes languages of various fields, professions and disciplines, connecting them at the same time to the general language. The language of tourism is thus a reflection and tool of transdisciplinary tourism studies, which for its development also calls for the planned development of tourism terminology. In the article a typology is presented of tourism terminology according to field and meaning within the framework of the Tourism Terminology Dictionary (TURS).
