Abstract

Aim. To demonstrate the diversity of phraseological units (PU) identified during the compilation of the concordance of the story by M. A. Sholokhov “Nakhalyonok” (“The Naughty Boy”).
Methodology. All the phrases are checked against the data of phraseological dictionaries, most belong to the periphery of phraseology. Stable combinations are divided into customary and transformed national phrases, dialectal and authorial.
Results. An attempt has been made to divide PU into groups based on use in different works of the author, which will make it possible to identify the core and peripheral phraseological units of the writer’s poetics.
Research implications. Working on the concordance with attention to each word makes it possible to clarify the phraseological units reflected in the dictionaries of the writer’s language, and to prove the unity of M. A. Sholokhov’s style as the author of “Don Stories” and novels.
