OLYMPIAD TASKS IN PHRASEOLOGY: THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECT

Abstract

The article is devoted to topical issues of modern school education on the assimilation of the subject area “Russian language” by students. The main directions of preparing middle and high school students for Olympiads in the Russian language at different levels – from school to Russian – are considered. The focus is on one of the sections of the Russian language “Phraseology”, which is the most difficult to understand the essence of the semantic and grammatical properties of linguistic units, since it is a higher-level unit compared to a word. Phraseological units accumulate the cultural code of the nation, therefore, by exploring their origin, meaning and functioning, the student immerses himself in the history, linguistic environment of his ancestors and can scientifically explain many linguistic facts. Olympiads and competitions in the Russian language are aimed at identifying the knowledge and skills of students in the process of solving linguistically complex problems that require comprehension and explanation of the linguistic facts of the Russian language.
