This article shows that there are two Geometry Drawing ideas about the "violation of NORMS" in the linguistic consciousness based on the analysis of the figurative meanings of “ выйти ” and “ перейти ”, prefixes “ пере -” and their Chinese counterparts出and过, which indicate the presence of two types of STANDARDS: a framework - primarily as a constraint, and linear - actually as valid irreducibility in the scale of possible indicators. In turn, the linear values may be approximate or absolute. During the values of "violation of RULES" formatted in the considered linguistic units, both variability of different ratings of the framework REGULATIONS and the difference in the estimated prevalence and absolute linear NORMS can be observed.
