Abstract
The article is devoted to the comparative typological linguistic and cultural analysis of Italian, German and Ukrainian proverbs and sayings. The groups of idioms combined by a lingual component with a generalized meaning “Space” are identified. The structure and semantics of phraseological units are directly related to intralingual and extraliving language processes, which took place on certain territories within a given period and can be identified by their variability in terms of genetic, functional, structural, and grammatical features. Analysis reveals the logical, semiotic, structural and figurative organization of proverbs and sayings and emphasizes the uniqueness of each of the studied languages. The groups of paremias are combined by a lingual component with a generalized meaning “Space”, identified and analyzed. The definition of semantic peculiarities of idioms of any language makes it possible to state that even in related languages the idioms’ content often has significant differences. High degree of phraseological activity of a certain component can be the characteristic of one language, whereas in other language due to its national worldview it occurs extremely rarely. By analyzing proverbs and sayings, we can state that self-identification of an ethnic group occurs through cultural concepts or "key words of culture", "which explicate the ethnic mentality: the values, ideals and ethnic groups sets, that reflect the peculiarities of the national character and perception the world".
