Abstract

The article deals with trade and commercial terminology – a special group of phraseological and lexical units – in the fiction of the Nobel laureate John Steinbeck. Phraseological means of expressing commercial terms in the analyzed texts are clearly traceable: patterns of substantivized, adjectival, adverbial and verbal phraseological units, quantitative variation phraseme, idiomatic expressions with metaphorical meaning, variant and variable transformation of phraseological units.
