In the article that analyzes the translation strategies from Romanian to Russian phraseological units. Examples have been selected that highlight the essential characteristics of phrases. The difficulty of translating these lexical units is explained by the complex nature of their content and by the often-specific meaning of only a certain cultural-linguistic community.

The author of the transfer does not translate word (literally) the phraseological units and obtains the variants. The content does not support changes and the stylistic equivalence of the original is ensured.
