Abstract: 

The article describes the dynamic processes, happening in the semantic field "Laugh". It consists of lexico-semantic groups of verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs, words of a category of state and interjections. The author considers the changes of the lexical structure of the lexico-semantic groups of verbs, verbal idioms and nouns, entering this semantic field. Special attention is paid to the emergence of new words and new lexical meanings, and also a release of words from the use. At the end of the article the author sums it all up by saying, that the semantic field "Laugh" is a self-organizing dynamic fragment of the Russian lexical system. It constantly changes and develops. On the one hand, dynamic processes in the semantic field "Laugh" show changes of life of the Russian society, but on the other hand, changes in the Russian language picture of the world are reflected in them. А release of words from the use shows changes of a condition of the Russian laughter culture.
