Abstract
The article deals with the linguistic and cultural potential of onomastic phraseology in the context of teaching Ukrainian as a foreign language. A review analysis of phraseological units with onomastic components of the Ukrainian language is made from the point of view of language didactics, namely: the types of proper names in the composition of phraseological units are considered in view of their linguistic potential; the types of onomastic phraseology are analysed by origin, stylistic labelling and by other features that may be important for foreigners in order to master this layer of phraseology; features of transformation of connotations of proper names as a part of phraseological units and ways of their semanticization are characterized. The author draws attention to the multilevel ethnic cultural information encoded in phraseological units, and the need to gradually involve such information in the process of language learning. Phraseological units report through their names important events, peculiar customs, ways of thinking, history and mythology of the ethnos. Proper names with their inherent cultural and historical connotations play an important role as a reference point in time and space. It should be noted that the borders between culturally specific and internationally known onyms are becoming more and more mobile today due to the expansion and deepening of the processes of intercultural communication. The review of onomastic phraseology of the Ukrainian language in view of its origin, function of the onymic component, stylistic characteristics from the point of view of didactics of the Ukrainian language as a foreign language convinces us of the urgent need to compile linguistic phraseological educational dictionaries. One of the leading groups to be represented in such phraseographic works should be onym phraseology, which has great didactic potential. Key words: onomastic phraseology, intercultural communication, language competence, background knowledge, cultural connotation.
