Exercise#3a. As we know, the concept of linguaculturology can be understood as
“cultural-mental-lexical” expression. Clearly, linguacultualogy means cultural
behavior of any nation and some phrases appear from the cultural spirit of a
nation (for example,the word “квас” in Russian is used as a component in the
phraseological unit “перебиватьсясхлебанакваснаводу” with the meaning “live
from hand to mouth”, be extremely poor”. Kvass (квас) is a national drink made
from rye bread and malt. Phraseological units containing such national
components also exist in the English language. For example, the name of the
English river Avon is a component of the phraseological expression “Sweet Swan
of Avon”. In Uzbek, mostly “green tea” is considered as anational component in
such examples as “бир пиёла чой устида” with the meaning of pleasant
conversation or discussion of a serious issue).
