Abstract

The article systematizes linguistic approaches to the classification of Chinese language utterances and ready-made expressions. Stable expressions, known in Chinese linguistics as shuyu, are an integral part of language and culture. Based on the analysis of theoretical works on Chinese paremiology, as well as the author's observation of linguistic facts, the formal-structural and speech features of several varieties of shuyu (yanyu, suyu, sehoyu, chengyu, guanyungyu) are considered, the linguapragmatic properties of each of these types of speech expressions are described, and specific examples are considered. The results of the study contribute to the modern theory of Chinese paremiology, and will also be useful as a theoretical source for comparative studies of Chinese and Russian paremias.
