The research presented in this paper aims to identify various ways in which the native speakers of English conceptualize the notion of death. This is achieved through the examination of numerous expressions, mainly euphemisms, which are used in everyday English to describe and discuss the event of dying. The research is based on the Conceptual Theory of Metaphor which claims that the general conceptual system, underlying both thought and action, is largely metaphorical in nature. In accordance with this claim, metaphor serves as a basis for understanding different concepts, which is reflected in the language used to talk about them.

The article discusses the phenomenon of compounds and idioms as a vital issue in the didactics of translation, exemplified by Polish and German. The author applies Langacker’s cognitive grammar to the description of compound nouns, explains the partial compositionality of complex linguistic units, presents their semantic types and analyses their semantic potential in the press article entitled Grauer Markt (Der Spiegel 2006/32). The cognitive analysis of its translation equivalents comprises the description of the main difficulties related to the translation of particular types of compounds, both literal and non-literal Polish constructions and the explanation of typical errors made by Polish students.
