THE NUMERICAL CONCEPT IN POLISH AND SPANISH PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

EN

The purpose of this article is to discuss the presence of numerical concept in phraseological units in Polish as well as to compare them with their Spanish equivalents. The comparative analysis allows us to assess what numbers are usually represented in the phraseology of the two languages, what is the representation of non-linguistic phenomena and whether the numbers carry similar connotations. The objects of our interest are cardinal and ordinal numbers found in stable word-groups typical of everyday language. Due to the large amount of phraseological material, the article is limited to determining the equivalents of word-groups in Spanish, without describing them in terms of ethnolinguistics and therefore without rich and complex symbolism of numbers.
