Abstract
At the present stage of linguistic studies, the problem of attitude to language as a system, that models the world in a human mind, is one of the most actual ones. The given article deals with problems of anthropocentric approach to language learning, of a person and his place in the culture and also it is devoted to the problem of cultural codes of the language and their representation in the semantics of the language. Greater attention is paid to the elements of culture, in particular those of Kazakh culture and the Kazakh language. Also it tells about reflection of some specific concepts and elements of ethnographics of Kazakh culture which gave birth to a wide range of concepts of the language. In the process of analysis of theoretical and practical material, we conclude that linguistic world view is a set of ideas about the world, historically rooted in the consciousness of the given language community and reflected in the language, and also a certain way of reality conceptualization.
