The lexeme akyl “mind” in phraseological units in the Adyghe epic “Narts”

   The article is devoted to the consideration of phraseological units of the Adyghe language (based on the material of the Adyghe Nart epic) with a somatic component akyl “mind”, expressing the intellectual state of a person.

   The work seems relevant due to the fact that phraseological units with the lexeme akyl “mind” in the Adyghe epic “Narthere” (“Narts”) were not subjected to research.

   The purpose of this study is to study phraseological units with the akyl “mind” component existing in the Adyghe language (based on the material of the Adyghe Nart epic).
   In this regard, the following tasks are set: to analyze the component - somatism akyl “mind” in the context of its use in the Adyghe phraseological units of the Nart epic, to identify their full equivalents in the Russian language, to study the stylistic shades of phraseological units with akyl “mind” in the Nart epic of the Adygs.

   Semantic, comparative and translation analysis is used to achieve the goal.

   The scholarly novelty lies in the analysis of some features of the functioning of the lexeme-somatism akyl “mind” as part of the phraseological units of the Adyghe Nart epic, denoting the intellectual, physiological, psychological state of a person and his external manifestation.
   This study is based on the scientific works of V. V. Vinogradov, N. M. Shansky, A. I. Molotkov, A.I. Fedorov, Yu. A. Tharkakho, M.M. Magomedkhanov, E.A. Bystrova and other scholars. As a result of the conducted research, we came to the conclusion that some phraseological units with the akyl “mind” component in the Adyghe and Russian languages indicate complete equivalents and significant similarity at the semantic level, which is due to the commonality of concepts of speakers of different languages. The theoretical and practical significance of the work lies in the use of the material of phraseological units with somatic components when creating a course of lectures on the modern Adyghe language and on Adyghe phraseology, in compiling phraseological dictionaries, when supplementing the existing “Phraseological Dictionary of the Adyghe language” (1980) by Yu.A. Tharkaho.
