Abstract
Conceptual world image is considered as a variable structure, which consists of a constant set of interconnected domains, one of which is time. Correlation changeability of the world image components is stipulated by the subject's way of world perception implemented in a certain type of discourse (here either scientific or philosophic anthropocentric is meant). Correspondingly, time domain correlation with other domains in the conceptual world image is subject to variations depending on the type of the world perception, within which the subject forms his/her notion of time and verbalises it in discourse.

Keywords:  conceptual world image, domain, domain matrix, scientific discourse, philosophic anthropocentric discourse.
