- Abstract
This article deals with the comparative study of representation of childhood by means of Russian and Chinese phraseology. The subject of the research is Russian and Chinese phraseological units meaning “childhood”. The relevance of the research lies in the fact that childhood is an abstract concept that occupies an important place in Russian and Chinese worldviews and is a constituent part of the age concept. The aim of the paper is to identify and determine the isomorphic and allomorphic means of representation childhood as an age group within Russian and Chinese liguocultures. The comparative linguocultural analysis of Russian and Chinese phraseological units related to childhood has been carried out. The main conclusions of the study represent the prospects for further scientific research. The paper for the first time in linguistics advances the prototypical verbalization of a child in Russian and Chinese linguocultures. The concept of childhood is one of the most important ones in any culture, and at the same time, it is a dynamic one, which is reflected by the language means including phraseological units. Childhood serves as the initial stage of development of a person’s life in Russian and Chinese linguocultures.
