The present article aims to suggest novelty in the theory of the meaning of a word. Traditionally, the study of the meaning of a word is the study of correlation between the three points of a semantic triangle: nomination, concept, and referent. No doubt, that a word with its meaning is a linguistic phenomenon. As for a referent, it is always extralinguistic. The question is: How does a referent, as an object of extralinguistic reality, participate in the formation of the meaning? The article argues that extralinguistic reality is reflected in the form of a sensuous imprint but developed into a sensuous image in the process of formation of a word as a second signal system (Pavlov’s theory on two signal systems). The author regards a sensuous image existing in a word as a linguistic image. The acknowledgment of a linguistic image in a word permits us to present the meaning of a word as a correlation of three main components: nomination, significatum, and linguistic image.
