Abstract:	The article presents an overview of the theoretical foundations underlying a linguo cognitive study of the complex concept WORD / LANGUAGE / SPEECH as a fragment of the English-language naïve and scientific worldviews. The inseparable relationship between cognitive and mental processes and their verbalization through language determines the linguo cognitive perspective of the research and reveals its close connection with psychology, neurolinguistics, and cultural studies. The notion of a worldview (or picture of the world) is interpreted here in its dual form—as both a naïve and a scientific worldview. The survey of theoretical sources provides a rich foundation for scientific inquiry into the status of language as a bio-cultural phenomenon and into the problem of human phylogeny, which explains the emergence of language as a defining feature of humankind. The study also highlights the bodily rootedness of human cognition—and consequently of speech—in interaction with the social dimension of communicative activity. The results confirm the heuristic value of distinguishing the triadic concept WORD / LANGUAGE / SPEECH and of differentiating between naïve and scientific pictures of the world, as these approaches clarify how linguistic knowledge is conceptualized across cognitive and cultural strata. The discussion outlines the potential of extending this framework through corpus-based, cognitive-discourse, and neurolinguistic methods, emphasizing its interdisciplinary applicability. The conclusion stresses that naïve and scientific worldviews, while distinct in epistemological depth, jointly shape a unified model of English linguistic consciousness in which cognition, language, and worldview interrelate as integral components of human understanding.
