Abstract:  The object of research is the frame structure of proverbs and proverbial phrases, and the subject matter is the German and Russian proverbs and proverbial phrases as a form of representation of people’ knowledge in language from the point of view of cognitive linguistics.
The article purposes to connect the frame realization of proverbs and proverbial phrases with the level structure of a frame. A scientific idea for the first time given is that of discourse distribution of proverbs and proverbial phrases for definition of their place in native speakers’ language worldview.

The method of situational modification of a frame allowed revealing its individual structure which contents depends on the speaking. As a result we have attempted to prove that the top level displays a topic of conversation in the form of abstract concept which is the general sense of the corresponding theme group of proverbs and proverbial phrases. The choice of this or that proverb or proverbial phrase at the lower level of a frame depends on the communicants’ individual experience and knowledge, on a person’s individual perception of a concrete situation and purpose of conversation.
The results of the conducted research can be applied to studying ways of the organization, storage and representation of knowledge of different people in language.

Keywords:  Russian and German proverbs and proverbial phrases, knowledge, forms of knowledge’ representation, frames and their structure.
