Abstract
In proverbs and sayings expressing the popular idea of time categories, in particular about the beginning and the end, not only the meaning of the cyclicity of everything that happens is revealed and the beginning is sacralized, not only the meaning of these concepts or rituality is reflected, but also the philosophical nature of reflections on time comes to the fore, the so-called folk worldly wisdom, which has been formed over the centuries, and moral assessment, which make up the content and genre basis of this type of folk art. In the article the author investigates the time vision of the world contrasting Russian and Mongolian proverbs and sayings. As the material studied shows, time is emotionally and value-saturated in Russian and Mongolian folk aphorism with a temporal meaning. Proverbs and sayings give us an idea of the similarity of the picture of the world in the Russian and Mongolian languages: time has power over people and people feel a sense of subordination, respect to time.
