<jats:p>This article examines the theoretical and methodological interpretations of the concept, which is one of the central categories of modern anthropocentric linguistics.

The analysis demonstrates that a concept is not merely a logical notion, but a complex mental-linguistic formation shaped at the intersection of language, cognition, and culture.</jats:p>
