the project
In the modern world much attention is

devoted to the interaction of languages, to their integration and to the mutual penetration of words and whole phrases. The comparison of figures of speech, in this case, idioms, lets us give a definite answer to the one of sharp questions - do different languages, belonging even to various families of languages, have similarities and include the same constructions?

the results of the research in idiomatic expressions are not only the value for modern linguistics, but it is also important for other fields of the science and of our lives- culturology, the Social Science, psychology and even the international political science.
