Abstract
This article discusses the means of expressing spatial relations - position and direction of action - in Russian and Chinese languages. The purpose of the comparative description is to identify the similarities and differences in the meaning and use of prepositions in two languages. The more developed system of spatial relations in Russian language determines the difficulties of learning this topic for Chinese students.
