The article deals with the analysis of borders of synonyms of the Polish lexeme “los” in
the ordinary consciousness of native speakers. A broader list of words, which are included
into synonymic group with a dominant “los” by native speakers allows talking about the other
measures using for determination of proximity of words meanings as compared to the traditional
systems approach to the description of the lexis. Expansion of synonymic group occurs because
of inclusion of the words of other parts of speech, collocations, idioms, antonyms, proper names,
etc. Synonymic group in the ordinary human consciousness is often formed from the synonymy of
sense rather than meanings. This synonymic group is the result of interpretation of the meanings
of words not only in frame of language, but also the encyclopedic knowledge of the individual, his
social experience and emotional evaluation. Research of such synonymic groups by methods of
modern psycholinguistics and cognitive linguistics can help to specify the nature of synonymy.
