Keywords:
cognitive linguistics, word meaning and its features, communication, mental model.Abstract
This article discusses a number of significant aspects related to the mental formation of word meaning, which constitutes a core component of cognitive lexicology. The paper also examines various states connected with human cognition, as well as their widely observed manifestations. By providing an understanding of how words are correctly conceptualized and directed into human consciousness with their intended meanings, this study aims to enhance learners’ comprehension of cognitive lexicology and to foster a deeper awareness of its fundamental nature.
