Summary/Abstract: Nomination of an object of the world is correlated to its awareness, but it is also a procedure this involves the construction of the human paradigm and also artifact universe and divine universe. The named object belongs to a specific lexical field, but in some cases, this object may include other lexical fields. The sacred object has a status which gives it a divine dimension and a taboo status. From a lexical point of view, the object that belongs to the subclass of substantives, then joins a single class representing only itself and takes sometimes the status of proper name. The passage of the object of the world, from one universe to another, seems to create a lower bound process or an amplification process. In this paper, using different examples, we will try to identify what are the phenomena that govern the changes of the lexical class of the divine nouns.
