The question of the mythical (mystical) in our lives is now becoming more acute. People want to know objective reality and learn to perceive it adequately. The book pays attention to the mechanisms of myth-making itself. The role of language as a descriptive force in creating a picture of the world has been studied. It is shown how inadequate language constructions create an inadequate picture of reality. From the perspective of psycholinguistics, language is a tool of description and a tool of thinking, so first you need to understand the tools themselves and their power. In other words, the book is about the fact that people in different life situations simply do not know how to describe them correctly, which is what gives rise to the myth.
