Somatic Phraseological Units with Locative Meaning in Russian and Kyrgyz Linguistic Culture

The article is devoted to the study of somatic phraseological units with locative meaning in Russian and Kyrgyz through the prism of linguoculturology. A comparative analysis of the use of phraseological units associated with body parts to denote various spatial concepts and images in the compared languages was carried out. The relevance of the problem under consideration lies in the insufficient knowledge of the linguocultural features of phraseological units with locative semantics in the Russian and Kyrgyz languages.Particular attention is paid to the analysis of somatic phraseological units with spatial meaning in Russian and Kyrgyz culture, as well as to the identification of linguistic and cultural differences and similarities in these expressions. The purpose of the study is the influence of cultural traditions and customs on language, which allows for a deeper understanding of how spatial concepts are encoded in vocabulary. The study showed that somatic phraseological units with a locative meaning in the Russian and Kyrgyz languages are associated with such parts of the body as the arm, leg, eyes, but unlike Russian, the Kyrgyz language has phraseological units associated with eyebrows and chin, which allows emphasizing both cultural differences and common features in the perception of space.
