The human ability to speak is a specific field of Homo Loquens activity related to different spheres of people’s life and processes of human activity. Processes based on linguistic semantics which includes the types of knowledge used by native speakers of the language in communication are being actively investigated by the cognitive scientific paradigm. Cognitive analysis helps to identify the deep processes where significant hidden regularities are emerge due to the complex nature of language as a means of communication. In psycholinguistics the generation of speech is the process of interpretation of thoughts into words, and the language is a form of representation of the categories of thoughts. Objectification of ideas into words reflects the complex process of conceptualization. There is still no consensus about the prevalence of conceptual world over language or vice versa. Language, speech, and speaking are from the sphere of unconscious and, at the same time, they are a necessary tool of conscious reflection. They reflect the conceptual world of a language native speaker and their mentality – the national way of seeing and understanding the world. We made an attempt to research a vast section of the lexical level of a language structure – the group of the verbs of speaking and to reveal the individual peculiarities of Russian and English.
