Concept "los" ("destiny") as a key in the Polish culture has many lexical representation. "Destiny" in Polish is the life, the existence of someone or something; future, sequence of events; the supreme regulatory beginning. Destiny is thought of as contradictory, ambivalent beginning. It is able to help or hinder. Carriers of the Polish language are ambivalent in their relation to the destiny. Presence of the destiny may either be approved or denied. Poles have different views on the nature of destiny. On the one hand, destiny is presented as unchangeable and predefined from above. On the other, there is a view that it is created during the life (existence), and, for example, a person can have a significant influence on it. Metaphorically in Polish destiny is represented by the signs of person, connecting or disconnecting, gracious or formidable beginning. The relevance of the study is due to the increased attention of scientists to culturally significant concepts as components of the conceptual picture of the world. Despite the fact that the concept of destiny has been reflected in detail on the material of different languages of the world, in linguistics there are many problems regarding the linguistic interpretation of this culturological phenomenon, including its multilevel structure. The aim of the research is to clarify the linguistic features of the concept of destiny in Polish linguistic culture. Materials and methods of research (detailed description of what material and what methods were used in the research, 3000 -4000 characters with spaces). The work is performed on the basis of substantiation of theoretical and methodological bases of studying the specifics of objectification of the concept; analysis of the linguistic features of the concept of "los", which is represented by numerous units (tokens, including metaphors, phraseology). The concept of "los" is multilevel in its structure: on the one hand, fate - is a series of events in the life (existence) of someone or something, the future, on the other hand, fate is a higher principle that determines the course of events and features of the life of a subject. Historiography of the problem is to study different types of dictionaries. The results of the research are the main text of the article (the course of the research is described, its main results are stated, indicating the new one proposed by the author to solve this problem). Based on the study of different types of dictionaries, the structure of the concept of "los" is determined, the emphasis is on the interpretation of the above concept in stable phrases. The study of lexical-semantic fields and related intrafield and interfield relations has been productive in this regard. The level structure is also determined and the figurative component of the culturological concept "los" is revealed. Fate is one of the most profound concepts of the Polish cultural area. The semantics of this concept gives us an understanding of the all-encompassing human life and the action of various factors on it.
