Kxercise#3a. As we know, the concept of Iinguaculturology can be understood as “cultural-mental-lexical” expression. Clearly, Iinguacultualogy means cultural behavior of any nation and some phrases appear from the cultural spirit of a nation (for example,the word “квас” in Russian is used as a component in the phraseological unit "перебивапгьсясхлебанакваснаводу ” with the meaning "live from hand to mouth”, be extremely poor”. Kvass (квас) is a national drink made from tye bread and malt. Phraseological units containing such national components also exist in the English language. For example, the name of the English river Avon is a component of the phraseological expression “Sweet Swan of Avon”. In Uzbek, mostly “green tea" is considered as anational component in such examples as “бир пиёла чой устида” with the meaning of pleasant conversation or discussion of a serious issue).
Based on the above-mentioned samples find out national coloring words, which can be asymbol of theculture of compared languages.
