The article analyzes nouns with the affixoid - khana formed through compounding. The aim of the study is to reveal the dynamics of the word-formation model with the named affixoid in the Kazakh language during the period of independence, when it was activated for the nomination of new political, sociocultural, organizational, and everyday realities, phenomena, and concepts. Despite the Persian origin of the word “khana” it became naturalized in the Kazakh language and was actively used in Old Kazakh for the formation of nouns. Then, during the colonial period, when the demand for the Kazakh language gradually declined, this word-formation model ceased to be active and frequent. However, the new sociocultural reality that came with the declaration of independence included internal mechanisms of language, in particular the formation of complex words using the affix - khana . The article describes the most commonly used structural and semantic models for forming nouns with - khana : with the first component being a noun and with the first component being a verb. The semantic models of complex words denote either the location, sale, or storage of certain items, or a place for professional activities: cooking, medical treatment, crafts, etc. The most common model in modern Kazakh is the one with the first component being a noun. The component - khana has partially lost its lexical meaning, and its main function has become word-formation and the transmission of grammatical meaning in new compound words.
