Lausanne Conference is a process which began on November 1922, continued in two parts and resulted with the treaty signed on July 24, 1923. There are several researches and memories about Lausanne Conference and Lausanne Treaty. Particularly in research sources there are some inconsistencies and random preferences about using the basic terms. Whereas Lausanne Conference and Lausanne Treaty are on the field of interests of not only history science but international relations, political science and international law. Thus one should be advertency while using the terms about the subject. With this study it is aimed to contribute to solve the problems about the approach of terminology in the context of the literature of the period with a unique expression. For that matter, it will be offered to the researchers to make a conceptualization not in the perspective of personal choices but according to the period of the conference. During this work, the official reports of the Lausanne Conference and the letter of agreement will be the main sources. Also the correspondences during the conference will be analyzed and the used terms are going to be mentioned. Especially the telegrams between Ankara and Lausanne will be checked over. Also the topics talked during the conference and the diplomatic expressions will be stated. By the way the extensive and correct usages of the terms that took place both during conference and agreement letter will be argued and will be responded according to the analyzed datas. If there are new terms that didn’t used before an originality analysis will be done.
