This article analyzes the linguistic study of color lexicon within the framework of theoretical approaches developed in modern linguistics. Color names are interpreted not only as simple nominative units of the language, but also as complex semantic phenomena reflecting human thinking, cultural experience and social consciousness. In the process of research, the factors of formation of color lexicon, their semantic structure and stages of semantic development are highlighted on the basis of specific language materials. Particular attention is paid to the fact that color units acquire different meanings depending on the context, are enriched with metaphorical and symbolic content, as well as perform an expressive function in the speech process. The article also considers the linguocultural characteristics of color names and substantiates their inextricable connection with national thinking. The results of the research serve to assess color lexicon as an active layer of the language system, as well as to further understand its lexical-semantic capabilities.
