Abstract

The article analyzes the phraseology of German and Ukrainian languages with a gastronomic component, which reflect the uniqueness of the worldview of Germans and Ukrainians; the role of gastronomic tokens in phraseology is considered; a study of "gastronomic" phraseological units in order to identify their national and cultural specifics. The activity of phraseologists was also analyzed and it was found that despite the significant number of works in this field, a large number of unresolved issues remain today. The relevance of phraseological research is determined by attention to the problems of national self-awareness, the need to find new approaches to the study of phraseological unit as a treasure trove of national connotations, as well as the specifics of the image in the phraseology of national mentality. The study of phraseology is due to the fact that the phraseological system of any language has national and cultural specifics. An object in a certain culture exists in a specific environment unique to that culture, has culturally conditioned associative connections. The study of phraseological units allows us to consider the full range of national connotations, and to trace the features of the national mentality of a nation, to show the differences and commonalities in culture. Gastronomy, along with language, is one of the most important tools for learning another culture. It is an important component of the mentality of nations. Gastronomy reflects the religious views, way of life and way of life of representatives of different nationalities. Food culture reflects national identity, cultural characteristics, customs and typical habits of society. Phraseologisms with a gastronomic component in German and Ukrainian have both in common and a number of differences due to the peculiarities of the mentality of the German and Ukrainian peoples. It is these common and distinctive features that we tried to show in our study. Phraseologisms of gastronomic discourse allow us to reveal the characteristic features of the reflection of the picture of the world, which is why it is so important to study them.
