This paper presents the Author’s method for describing prototype categories based ondictionary and corpora data. The case of the conceptual category ROBAK demonstratesthat prototype theory’s standard and extended versions’ tools (distinguished by GeorgesKleiber) are insufficient to reconstruct some conceptual categories. ROBAK is an exampleof an atypical category both collective and taxonomic. Within the approach presentedin this paper the Author attempts to bring together the conceptualization of a prototypeas a set of features and cue validity parameter as an indicator of importance of a singlefeature for the category. The Author proposes a set of steps leading to the reconstructionof the prototype structure of the category ROBAK. Those steps may also be employedto analyze other categories.
