Our article provides a comprehensive study of one of the main categories of the modern paradigm of science – the concept of «linguistic intelligence». In order to determine the scientific characteristics of the term, a research work consisting of several stages has been carried out. For the first time, an attempt was made to provide a systematic explanation of the concept in the context of Kazakh science. The structure of the concept is presented by comparing various scientific data. The study examines the formation of the concept of «linguistic intelligence». Based on the chronological principle, the problem of introducing a category into scientific terminology is investigated. Specific differences of the concept were established. The theoretical foundations have been comprehensively analyzed and given in a systematic manner. The main linguistic competencies and forms of implementation included in the structure of linguistic intelligence are identified. Due to the urgency of the language problem, one of the main tasks at present is a comprehensive study of the concept we are considering. In our study, defining the basic nature of linguistic intelligence, we propose the basics of its systematic consideration.
