In keeping with the cognitive trends in linguistics, the paper focuses on two of those characteristics which are closely connected: size and shape. The corpus of lexical items is selected in such a way as to represent the various characteristic types and to facilitate the contrastive analysis of the two languages. %B Съпоставително езикознание / Сопоставительное языкознание / Contrastive linguistics %V 31 %P 5–16 %G bul %N 3
