must be fulfilled:
1) to define and reveal the concepts of phraseological units and their
classification;
2) to define and characterize features of the phraseological units with a color
component in texts of mass media;
3) to investigate the semantics of phraseological units with a color
component;
4) to determine the influence of the components of the phraseological color
on the formation of its semantics;
5) to determine and analyze the ways of adequate translation of
phraseological units with a color component in the texts of mass media.
The object of the research is phraseological units with a color component
