The categorization is characterized in the article as a semantic-cognitive activity in the process of which the semantic categories considered as complexes envelop linguistic elements having the same or differentiating features, and also more or less typical features in comparison with the prototype. On the basis of a number of principles such as a principle of proto-typicality, principle of non-rigidity of categorization, principle of gradation, principle of continuity, principle of non-homogenеity of the features phraseological units are classified in certain cognitive categories having linguistic realization.
Keywords:
