Abstract: | The linguistic and cultural research into the history of coffee (considered, for a while, both drink and food), is controversial, even suspicious, but at the same time it is interesting and worth analyzing in detail. This study represents only a (primary) lexico-semantic subcategory which is part of an expanding series (of fields) dealt with in a larger work. The terms within the lexico-semantic field of coffee have been gradually transferred from an ultraspecialized field to the common language. In a multicultural era, the history of coffee and cafés (including cybercafés), of drink and food, in general, involves, besides tolerance to others, socializing, communication and, impliedly, a joyful, colloquial language. Along with them, the demands of coffee drinkers are more and more complex and determine the preparation of some coffee-based beverages, with various ingredients and spices, meant to satisfy their taste and wishes. |
