Lithuanian readers can enjoy the translations of fairy tales by the Latvian authors Kārlis Skalbe, Anna Sakse, Margarita Stāraste, Imants Ziedonis and Juris Zvirgzdiņš. Literary fairy tales and their translations make interesting material for study; also, it is intriguing to consider how texts written for Latvian children are perceived by Lithuanian children.The aim of this study is to find out what language conformities and peculiarities have been taken into consideration in the process of translating Latvian literary fairy tales into Lithuanian. Attention is focused on one of the proper name groups - anthroponyms, as well as appellatives related to them - phytonyms.The study material includes the cycle of fairy tales "Flowers: Fairy Tales" by Anna Sakse and their translation into Lithuanian (translator Renata Zajančkauskaite). The study has been carried out by contrastive analytical, descriptive and interpretation methods. Mainly fairy tales with certain discrepancies between the anthroponyms and phytonyms in the source and target languages were selected for the present analysis.The analysis allows to conclude that the anthroponyms and phytonyms used by the author reflect the cultural environment of various countries of the world. Anna Sakse links anthroponyms with phytonyms either directly (the words can be either actual people's names or personified appellatives) or in a more or less indirect manner. In the translated fairy-tale texts the reader can find the same anthroponyms and/or phytonyms as in the source text, however, one can identify also cases of cultural substitution. Sometimes the choice of a different personal name can be justified by the fact that the gender of the word differs in Latvian and Lithuanian, and therefore a literal transfer is not possible. The cycle contains fairy tales that have been translated into Lithuanian not because their phytonyms match but because of the development of the plot or associations implied.

Research into the phraseological component of dialects in different Ukrainian areas is especially relevant due to the fact that during the last decade the phraseology of dialects has been studied very intensively, despite all the diffi culties connected with collecting dialect material and the unrefi ned methods of their researching. The article is devoted to the structural/semantic description of phraseological units with phytomyn components, which make up the phraseologic/semantic line “unclever, stupid”. The source for this research was material from dictionaries, phrasal dictionaries, and from collections of modern words from three dialects of the Ukrainian language. Analysis of phraseological units and their components in space allowed for the determination of either non-fi xed phrases or the absence of their expected components, the fi rmness of different dialectal phenomena, and system phenomena within phraseology.
