Аннотация

The present research aims at identifying the concepts that structure the category of time in Kazakh
idioms, which have a reference to temporality, to parameters of duration, speed, age, and events. A
linguistic analysis of Kazakh idioms showed that time is conceptualized as a cyclical process where
days turn into nights, and autumns turn into winters, etc. Also, a life span is traditionally divided into
three phases: birth, life, and death; moreover, the analysis showed that concepts of time are represented
through temporally situated events, which are culturally motivated, and also through the parameters of
age which are ethnographically stipulated
