Exercise#3a. As we know, the concept of linguaculturology can be understood 
as “cultural-mental-lexical” expression. Clearly, linguacultualogy 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 “перебиватьсясхлебанакваснаводу” with the meaning 
“live from hand to mouth”, be extremely poor”. Kvass (квас) is a national drink 
made from rye 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.
