Connections between the process of perception of reality, its cognition and verbalisation of concepts constitute main subject of cognitive linguistics but were noticed and described earlier. According to Jan Rozwadowski (1867-1935) language pictures the world, and changes in language are conditioned by the ways of world's perception by humans. The article presents also other conceptions of Rozwadowski that are similar to cognitive linguistics: role of culture in the process of naming, shifts in words' meaning, connection between semantics and grammar, and metaphor as a fundamental mechanism of language.
