Linguoculturological Features of Phraseological Units in Modern English Short Stories
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Phraseological units in modern English short stories are not only tools of stylistic expressiveness but also carriers of cultural values, worldviews, and national identity. This article explores the linguoculturological features of such units, analyzing their semantic depth, cultural specificity, and contextual adaptation. Drawing upon principles from cultural linguistics and phraseology, the article examines how idioms, metaphors, and fixed expressions function within English literary discourse to reflect Anglo-Saxon cultural norms, collective consciousness, and historical experiences. The findings underline the critical role phraseological units play in preserving cultural memory and enhancing narrative color in contemporary English fiction.
