Relevance. Phraseological units with antonymous components of the two studied languages have not been previously studied. Since the English and Kazakh languages are unrelated and different-structured languages, determining their similarities and differences, as well as specific characteristics, requires careful study. Purpose. Comparison of phraseological units with antonymous components of two unrelated languages from the point of view of their lexical and grammatical features and identification of their similarities and differences. To achieve this goal, we set the following tasks: to reveal the study of the comparative aspect of phraseological units with antonymous components in the English and Kazakh languages; to determine the differences and similarities of phraseological units with the antonymous components of two different-structured languages, to identify the specific features of each language. Methods. The work is based on the following methods: method of phraseological description, lexical and grammatical analysis, component analysis. The method of continuous sampling from lexicographic sources of the English, Kazakh and Russian languages was used to find phraseological units with antonymous components. Results. Phraseological units with antonymous components are reflected in all lexical and grammatical categories of the language, and the analysis also revealed that phraseological units in the two languages under consideration can differ in the way of forming connections between components. Antonymous components in the phraseological units affect their integral meaning. Practical implications. Research materials can be used in the development of courses in lexicology and phraseology.
