Today, the use of astronomical terms in existing literature, both in education and in science, needs to be improved. Most authors of published books in the field of astronomy in the Tajik language are not specialists in this field. Therefore, there are many mistakes in such books.
Purpose of article: to shed light on the correct use of astronomical terms in education and science.
According on the results of the study, it is suggested that some of the international terms should be officially adopted, while some of the terms are already widely used in the Tajik language, which were refined by our scientists in the past. Another part of the terms needs to be improved and refined. The authors have tried to correct the shortcomings of existing terms and offer the best options.
