Historical formation of the Kyrgyz phythonymy

In the article, the author analyzes the opinions of famous scientists regarding the names of the plant world and studies in detail the meaning of specific phytonyms in the Kyrgyz language. At the same time, the scientific-anthological, historical significance of the names of the plant world in the development of the linguistic structure as such is considered. Consequently, the names of the plant world clearly reflect the interaction of human society with nature in general. As we know, the Kyrgyz language, in turn, being a part of the Turkic language family, is one of the most ancient languages among them. This circumstance by itself is a favorable soil for the appearance of similarities between the names of the flora of a given territory. However, these similarities are found in lexical and affixal composition, and at the same time, many plant names are transparent in terms of their etymology.
