Summary/Abstract: The study of the semantics of the Turkish lexeme yer with the main meanings ‘place’, ‘ground’ and a number of secondary meanings aims to get as close as possible to understanding all the information that a native speaker subconsciously has when using it. The meanings and features of the use of yer are determined by naive notions, the need to express modern scientific knowledge and the peculiarities of the nomination process in modern Turkish. In the Turkish language, it is legitimate to specify ‘place’ as the first meaning of yer, since only for it there are no synonyms or substitutes, a greater number of secondary meanings are formed from it, and it is more widely represented as a derivational base.
