Abstract

The article discusses the importance of studying phraseological units, proverbs, sayings, as a social component of a person’s linguistic image. An analysis of proverbs in Russian language dictionaries was carried out, which made it possible to identify proverbs and sayings of the thematic group “Man, his character and abilities. Language.
