Abstract: Speaking about the functions of language, along with its main function - communicative - it is necessary to highlight such a function as the guardian of culture. According to the English scientist Oliver Wendell Holmes, "every language is a temple in which the souls of the speakers are carefully preserved". That is why language, as the guardian of national culture, plays an important role in the formation of national thinking and, accordingly, the national character of a particular people. Keywords: national-cultural specifics, linguoculturology, paremiological space, comparative study, paroemia.

As an important part of children’s literature, nursery rhymes are the earliest literary styles that children are exposed to after they are born. They can reflect objective things, living customs and national culture. Through the comparison of animal images in Chinese and English classic nursery rhymes, this paper concludes that there are cultural differences in animal images in nursery rhymes. Some animal images have similar cultural connotations in Chinese culture and English culture, while some animal images have different cultural connotations.
