Abstract

The article classifies the semantic fields "tugan zher", "atazhurt", "el korgau", which reveal the essence of considering the concept of "Zher-Ana" as a concept, and the content is determined by analyzing language units. The study of concepts makes it possible to better understand the mentality, spirit, and soul of the people, to see the world picture of the same nation through the eyes of the same nation. By explaining the concept, one can determine the features of the thinking, worldview of the entire nation, people, from individuals to social groups. Since culture encompasses all the achievements that arise from the minds and foreheads of the human race, the meaning of the word culture is broad. It is especially necessary to cognitively consider lexemes as cultural concepts that reflect the specifics of the nation, the concept of cognition, thought, that is, in a word, cultural essence. Considering what the concept of "Zher-Ana" gives in Kazakh knowledge, we can recognize the life, national identity, and worldview of the people. By studying the concept of "Zher-Ana", we can formulate human thoughts and concepts and determine the cognitive nature of language. The purpose of the article is to classify such semantic fields as "tugan zher", "atazhurt", "el korgau", which reveal the content of the concept of "Zher-Ana", and to prove it by analyzing linguistic data. The object of the study of the article is Proverbs and sayings related to the Earth, works written by poets and writers about it.
