Introduction
Alongside many words and word-combinations every nation’s language has a specific way to express different ideas and thought – that is proverbs. These apt and vivid statements were created and “polished up” by many generations, they absorbed experience of the wise and turned to be to the quintessence of the folk wisdom. Proverbs and saying are commonly regarded as an important historical-lexical layer in every language.
Linguists emphasize that culture and language of a nation are closely and inseparably connected; therefore, any language study is only possible when based on cultural features of the given society. Every nation has its own linguistic world-image that is embodied in its expressive means, including proverbs and sayings.

The cultures of Russia and Great Britain are so reach, diverse and many-sided, that it makes it even more interesting and of great use to match and contrast the languages of these countries from the point of view of their stock of proverbs, and to observe and describe both their firm ties and their inimitable national colouring. It can be said that interpretation of proverbs’ semantics, including their expressive constituents, makes it possible to reveal peculiarities of national and cultural particularity of conceptualization and categorization of reality and human features.

Subsequent to the results of the research performed we may the conclusion as follows:
? There are many speculations on the problem of defining the boundaries of phraseology. For example, V.V.Vinogradov excludes proverbs from the sphere of phraseology, while many other linguists suggest that proverbs constitute an inseparable part of any language’s phraseology;
