Recently, the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic swept the globe. As a result, the epidemiological situation and restrictive measures in the country brought significant changes to the public life of the whole world including Kazakhstan – changes that even affected the language. Indeed, COVID-19 was an impetus to the formation of new names through the internal resources of the Kazakh language, the productivity of some word-building tools, and the rapid flow of language processes. In fact, the crisis brought on by the pandemic has replenished the vocabulary of all languages of the world with new terms. Although it has, of course, increased medical and ІТ terms, it has also expanded the range of both aggressive vocabulary, jargon and slang words. Furthermore, the stock of lexemes of phobias and agonies has increased. The vocabulary of fear would not be given much importance. Now in world linguistics, the vocabulary of phobias began to form. Along with the newer pandemic vocabulary, foreign words began to enter the lexicon of Kazakhstanis through the Russian language. The article analyzes protologisms that have appeared in the Kazakh language or have updated their meaning regarding the coronavirus pandemic. The study aims to systematize the covid-protologisms of the "coronavirus era" of 2020-2022 spread in the language of the media and through language content on social networks. At this point, the concept of protologism is defined. Additionally, covid-lexemes are organized according to word-forming methods, into semantic, term, and thematic groups, and are distinguished into types. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
