In modern linguistics, the study of cultural concepts can be viewed from the perspective of various sciences. In cognitive linguistics, a concept is understood as a unit of operational consciousness, a reflection of the content of knowledge, experience, the result of all human activities in the form of certain units, «quanta» of knowledge. In cultural linguistics, the concept is considered as a polysyllabic mental formation, which includes conceptual, figurative– perceptual, significant dimensions with the emphasis on its national and cultural nature. The semiotic description of a cultural concept involves a description of its three components – emblematic, symbolic and allegorical signs. The emblematic study of the concept is aimed at its recognition expressed in verbal designation. In this article, the emblematic signs of the linguistic and cultural concept of «marriage» are considered on the basis of culturally marked lexical and phraseological units of Kalmyk, Russian, and English. The study showed that this concept has different semantic content. In the Kalmyk language, the emblematic designation is realized paradigmatically, i.e. through related concepts. In Russian and English, this concept is expressed both in direct and metaphorical meanings of lexical combinations. The allegory of the concept is manifested through common proverbs and sayings. The study showed that this concept is appraising and marked and has various axiological reactions. On the one hand, marriage is associated with confidence and responsibility, on the other hand, marriage is compared with disappointment. Symbolic characteristics of the concept are described in literary text fragments.
