Abstract
In the article, the results of the comparative study of the substantive phraseological units (SPU) of the English and German languages from the structural perspective are presented. Structural analysis has shown that the most common model of the SPU of the English and German languages is “adjective attribute + noun”. The results of the analysis of the component composition have displayed that in the German and English languages, high recurrence is characteristic of the SPU group with the animal component. SPU with the religious component also prevail in German, whereas in English the names of food products and beverages are quite common. Somatisms, colour terms and proper names are less common in the SPU of both the languages.
