Azerbaijan has hosted prestigious international competitions in various sports. Sports terminology intensively enters the Azerbaijani language. This process is going so rapidly that the terms borrowed from other languages are used in their original forms, sometimes not professionally assimilated and presented to mass use. Thus, sports terminology is to be an object of thorough study, systematization and classification.
