Summary/Abstract: The study of verbs of understanding in the language structure is an essential issue for cognitive linguistics and scientific research related to the semantic fields of the lexical level. Verbs of understanding in the lexical tier of the language are indicators of the cognitive process of mastering speech by communicators and have a wide semantic scope. The central link in this sphere is the word “know”. After analyzing the formal and semantic valency of the verbs of understanding and describing their semantic and syntactic features, the researchers classified them into four groups, determined the functionality of these verbs by parts of speech, and identified subcategorical signs of right- and left-handed actants.
