Language and environment are two things that influence each other. Change in language, both in the lexicon or grammar, cannot be released from changes in the natural and social environment. On the one hand, environmental changes have an impact on change in language, and on the other hand, the community behavior towards their environment influenced by the language they use. Thus, the dynamics of the existence of the lexicon are affected by changes in the environment of a place the language used. The results of this study prove that there are relationship between language and nature. There are 6 lexicons which be explained in this article. Horbou or buffallo and Dekke or fish: goldfish are lexical items representing fauna. Boras Sipir ni Tondi or Rice and Demban or Sirih or betel leaf are lexical items representing flora.
