The article deals with the process of lexicalization of terminological abbreviations, during which the initial abbreviation becomes a separate unit of language that corresponds to the language norm; units of secondary nomination, which acquire word status in English due to frequency of their usage, are analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the similarity of the abbreviation with the noun and the implementation of its grammatical properties. The theoretical aspect of the study presents the opinions of scientists concerning the stages of lexicalization, the status of the acronym and abbreviation in the language, and attention is also paid to the signs of content words, the functions of the lexical unit (linguistic sign). The study was conducted on the material of technical texts on thermal power engineering, electronics, neural networks and machine learning.

Keywords:abbreviation, lexicalization, acronym, linguistic sign, noun.
