The article addresses lingual means of representing value-concepts in archaic Germanic, Celtic and Slavonic languages. The article discusses these concepts’ role in the categorization of the world and suggests a universalia-oriented systemic interpretation of the said phenomena. The respective matrix applied for interpreting universal patterns of informational exchange is introduced. Special attention is paid to the cognitive and linguo-cultural background of the units under analysis.
