This article discusses the standardisation and translation of the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP). The material used in the analysis is the ICNP in translation into Polish. The terms are grouped into the following categories: cross-cultural equivalent, terminological equivalent, descriptive equivalent, calques and borrowings, neologism. The results indicate which is the most frequent strategy involved using cross-cultural equivalents (1987 terms, 49.96 %). Calques and borrowings are present in 1025 terms (25.77 %), 904 (22.73 %) terms are terminological equivalents. There were only 61 (1.53 %) descriptive equivalents. No neologisms were found in the Classification.
