	This article presents the meanings of the lexeme patrie (lexical equivalent of the Polish ojczyzna and the English homeland). This work is a part of research on the concept of PATRIE in French language, based according to the ethnolinguistic school of Lublin on three kinds of data – systemic data, questionnaires, and textual data. The questions related to the meaning of the word patrie turned out to be crucial when the love to the homeland – patriotism, proclaimed as a republican value in the past in France, progressively considered as outdated during the second half of the 20th century, has been reappearing for several years in the French political discourse. Despite this resurgence, the word patrie is still used very rarely, and mostly in reported speech, in the French press reporting on the contemporary events in France, This lexical cautiousness of journalists seems to be linked with the „sensitive” and „non-European” features of the concept, which are described in this article .
