As a result of the analysis, isomorphic and allomorphic characteristics of the euphemistic nomination of physical and mental processes and phenomena of human life in two compared languages were revealed. It is proved that the national and cultural features of the life in the countries of the Russian and English language speakers and the features of their mentality underlie the euphemistic nomination of a person’s physical and mental characteristics with the help of phraseological euphemisms.
