Annotation: Language, being one of the main features of a nation, expresses the culture of the people who speak it, i.e. national culture. A big role in its comprehension is given to phraseological units. They, as collapsed texts, represent an important component of the "language". Phraseological units not only express, but also form the cultural identity of the native-speaking people. The study of phraseological units helps in many ways to understand the culture and way of life of peoples, to master a foreign language. The world of phraseology of modern English is great and diverse, and every aspect of his research certainly deserves due attention.

Keywords: Language, national culture, phraseological units, comprehension, cultural identity, native-speaking people, modern English, research.
