Phraseological units play an important role in all languages; they make our speech more impressive and emotional, at the same time contributing to its brevity and conciseness. The aim of the given paper is to study the nominal phraseological units in English and Armenian, particularly the constructions which have a noun component as а head word. The components of the phraseological units are studied from the point of view of their part of speech meaning. The semantic and stylistic peculiarities of the usage of phraseological units are also considered.
