The purpose of the scientific article is to study the use of the concept of "loneliness" in paremies and to determine the conceptual content of selected concepts in the cognitive aspect. To achieve this goal, we focused on the existing scientific definitions of the concept, the conceptual field, the linguistic picture of the world, on the basis of which the authors gave their own individual definition of the concept. The manifestation of the concept of “loneliness” in paremia was determined by specific language data. The analysis of cognitive models that determine the cognitive and linguocultural nature of the concept of “loneliness” was carried out.

A comprehensive deep knowledge of the world of concepts in the Kazakh language is of great practical importance. In particular, the study results of the concept of “loneliness” and the nature of proverbs and sayings arising from it are valuable material for teaching the lexicology of the Kazakh language, cognitive linguistics and linguoculturology, etc.
