The present paper is aimed at the analysis of the names of handicrafts in English, Russian and Latvian, considering the differences in conceptualization, nomination, and categorization of lexical items denoting handicraft activities. The analysis is performed focusing on action nominals that constitute a vast majority of the vocabulary of the respective thematic field in the working languages and which may pose challenges for the translators working in the respective field.
