The study is devoted to analysing the relationship between language, thinking and brainprocesses that reflect cognitive models in linguistics and neurolinguistics. The relevance ofthe work is stipulated by the need to understand how language structures form conceptualmodels, influencing cognitive processes and perception of reality, which is critical ininterdisciplinary research. The study aims to identify the synergy of cognitive linguisticsand neurolinguistics, which contributes to understanding the mechanisms of cognition andknowledge structuring. The study uses the method of cognitive modelling to analyselinguistic concepts and their connection with mental structures. The results show thatconcepts such as WAR, TIME, and LIFE are categorised through mental structures andconceptual metaphors. The concept of WAR in Western cultures is associated withheroism, while in other cultures, it is associated with destructive consequences. Theconcept of TIME is perceived as a resource, similar to money, which can be spent or saved.The conceptual metaphor LIFE IS A JOURNEY shows life as a journey with challenges andachievements. The conceptual sphere encompasses the interaction of universal conceptsand culturally specific elements that influence the formation of a mental picture of theworld. Language structures knowledge through frames, prototypes and scenarios, creatingtools for organising cognitive experience. Neuro-linguistics has established the role ofbrain mechanisms, such as the activity of Broca's and Wernicke's areas, in ensuring speechactivity. The linguistic relativity hypothesis also supports the relationship between languageand thinking, which shows the influence of linguistic categories on the perception of theworld. The results confirm the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to analysinglanguage, thinking, and brain processes to understand the nature of human cognition.
