Summary/Abstract: Semantic analysis of lexical fund, especially characteristic lexic with a specific linguocultural component, provides objective and reliable data about the history and tradition, and development of the cultural and spiritual life of some linguistic community. Accordingly, this paper deals with the presentation and analysis of semantic groups of orientalisms in the collection of stories "Thunder's Cannonball" with the goal to show the abundance of orientalisms in opposition to other words of foreign origin and the frequent semantic groups into which we have classified orientalisms. In the collection of stories "Thunder's Cannonball" Kulenović evokes a childhood in a lyrical way that makes native localities, names and origins recognizable. Therefore, we will also consider the justified use of a certain form of some lexemes, which, precisely creates the authentic verbal framework in which it placed the lyrical experience of childhood.
