The concept of "family" is one of the most communicatively relevant concepts of the Tajik conceptual sphere. The concept of "family" has a broad and diverse cognitive content in the Tajik linguistic consciousness. In the Tajik language, the concept of "family" is a composite mental entity, representing an integral set of a number of more concrete concepts: husband, wife, mother, father, children, relatives, etc., which form its content in their unity. Despite the fact that only the nominative layer of the concept is revealed through the interpretation of words, yet each definition is based on a common denotata, represented by the lexemes "group", "unity". Such definition of "family" implies association based on any common signs. The definition of "family" through a "group of relatives" involves association based on kinship - a relationship between people based on the origin of one person from another or different people from a common ancestor, as well as on marital family relationships. In the Tajik cultural and linguistic tradition, there are very close expressions of family perception and relations between family members, but there is no such distinct differentiation based on the kinship on the paternal and maternal lines.
