Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The purpose of our study is not only to analyze educational phraseologisms from a semantic and structural point of view, but also to determine the ratio of motivated and unmotivated phraseology. While doing our research we have used the following methods: literature review, descriptive method, analysis and synthesis methods. Results: we believe that motivated phraseologisms prevail over unmotivated phraseologisms in English and Russian. Having analyzed the 30 most frequently used phraseological units on the topic of “education”, we can confirm that the ratio of motivated phraseological units in both languages is significantly higher than unmotivated ones. Namely: in the English language, among 30 set expressions, there are 20 motivated phraseological units, which is 67% of the total, and 10 unmotivated phraseological units, which is 33%. As for the Russian language, the picture is the same: we have 20 motivated phraseological units, which is 67%, and 10 unmotivated ones, that is, 33%. In general, the percentage of motivated and unmotivated phraseological units in both languages is the same: 67% motivated set expressions and 33% unmotivated. The results obtained in the process of studying phraseological material can be used in compiling dictionaries, teaching aids for students studying Russian and English.
