Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the lexical means to represent the concept BREAK. The lexical representatives of the concept under analysis and the semantic structure of the key words have been determined. The maximum amount of sememes which they are able to mark is detected. Lexical units having direct semantic relations with the key words are inventoried.Groups of lexemes in which words are closer connected to each other have been distinguished, which made it possible to point out the semantic zones of the concept structure.
