In cognitive linguistics, a concept is understood as a mental structure containing cultural knowledge, associations, emotions, and evaluations connected with a particular phenomenon. The “woman” concept includes ideas associated with motherhood, beauty, wisdom, morality, kindness, modesty, patience, and emotional sensitivity. These conceptual features are verbalized through phraseological units and idiomatic expressions. Consequently, phraseology functions as a linguistic mechanism through which societies preserve and transmit cultural values from generation to generation [5, 2-5].
