Euphemisms of the Russian and Spanish Languages as Component of Linguistic Competence of the Translator
The lexical and phraseological euphemisms in the Russian and Spanish languages are considered. Euphemisms of any language present difficulties for translators. These units of language reflect the features of historical and cultural development of the nation and not always coincide in various cultures. The analysis of practical material shows that in two languages both identical and lacunary theme groups of euphemisms are allocated. The comparative description of euphemistic units gives the rich material for drawing up of educational bilingual dictionaries, lecture courses, special seminars for linguists - translators.
