Nominative-communicative phraseological units in English, Russian and Karakalpak languages

Abstract

The article analyses nominative-communicative phraseological units in English, Russian, and Karakalpak languages using A.V. Kunin's classification as an example. It examines the structural and semantic features of verbal phraseological units based on authentic materials that present the national and cultural characteristics of native speakers of English, Russian, and Karakalpak languages. The article shows the features of the components of phraseological units, which reflect the direct meaning of the core component – the verb and the figurative meaning of the second component - a noun or phrase. In this article, the main objective is to identify the differences in the structural and semantic characteristics of set phrases from other A.V. Kunin’s classifications of phraseological units, such as nominative, communicative and interjectional. This feature is that nominative-communicative phraseological units differ from others in that phraseological units perform the role of an action, i.e. the main component is a verb. Using the presented verbal phraseological units, we can see these differences. Furthermore, these examples provide a comprehensive picture of the world of English, Russian, and Karakalpak languages through comparison and contrast, reflecting the distinctiveness and uniqueness of native speakers.
