Annotation	The article analyses semantic-cognitive characteristics of verbs with the prefix unter– in Yiddish. The situation described by a prefixal verb is frequently conceptualized differently in comparison with the etymological space semantics of the prefix unter-. The situations “beside the observer”, “approaching the observer” and “behind the observer” are conceptualized as “below the level of the observer”. These situations can be represented as a set of participants and circumstances which in proposition have different ranks.
Key words	Yiddish, prefixal verb, semantics, concept of situation, referent
