Abstract

There is a problem evidently widespread and observed among professionals related to a basic professional competence: linguistic communication; the authors have investigated the issue and present examples of how lexical and syntactic levels are essentially affected; some substitutes are proposed to avoid lexical impropriety and clichés because they provoke a vitiated, tedious and monotonous atmosphere in the communication as evidence of impoverishment of the vocabulary, which shows a poor linguistic image. It means this other action directed to the reflection and communication improvement of these professionals.
