Abstract
Socio-economic development as well as factors and determinants of development.
The scientific language, as well as everyday and literary language, is in constant development.
The effect of this development is the multiplication of flavored notions and concepts
leading to many misunderstandings and ambiguities, which should not happen in the scientific
language. The presented texts should be written in a language that is clear, simple, logical,
unambiguous and understandable, and their interpretation should not cause problems. This
article presents remarks concerning the interpretation of such basic notions of socio-economic
sciences as socio-economic development, economic growth and factors and conditions of
development, quite freely used in scientific texts. It also contains the correct interpretation of
these notions, especially in reference to the language of socio-economic geography, regional
economics and socio-economic and spatial development and planning. Only an unambiguously
interpreted text can be a platform for mutual understanding, basis for scientific discussion
and the way to the the real development of science.
