Possession of beauty. 2. Attractive force, a good phenomenon, desired by the heart and soul. 3. Clean and flawless. 4. Unprecedented, amazing. 5. Attitude to others/to yourself. The semantic features of the language units representing the concept of “Beauty” in both proverbial language pictures of the world are anthropocentric, personal-individual, value-evaluative and emotional-evaluative. In the concept of “Beauty” each semantic feature is realized through linguistic units characteristic of a particular language.
