The associative experiment is the basic method to get the world image of language speakers, the Gestalt method by Y.N. Karaulov is the basic to reveal the core and periphery conceptual signs of the concept. Associations of Yakut language speakers to 15 stimulus words presented a huge number of reactions, so we used Gestalt method by Y.N.
