To make teaching of the German language more effective diferent tyres of exercises were used: explanatory reading, reading excerpts from prose and poetic works of the past with oral and written retelling, oral and written translation, copying from a texbook, explanatory dictations, memorizing poems and excerpts from prose and writing them from memory in class, grammar and lexical tests. It has been defined that the ideas about daily study of the German language is well worth noting.

This article deals with the study of phraseological and paremiological units with coloronyms blau/ CиHий/гOлYбOй/зəHгəP/KYK (blue) on the basis of the material of German, Russian and Tatar in respect of the comparative aspect. The article gives an etymological description of the color names being analyzed, reveals their symbolic meanings and their role in the specificity of the linguistic color image of the world of the German, Russian and Tatar peoples. As a result of the analysis of phraseological and paroemiological units containing coloronyms blau/CиHий/гOлYбOй/зəHгəP/KYK (blue), a classification of 12 groups has been made, the similarities and differences in the perception of these color names by different peoples have been revealed. In Russian and Tatar, two lexemes CиHий/ гOлYбOй/зəHгəP/KYK are used to designate dark blue and blue colors. The ambivalence of the analyzed colors is noted. The high frequency of the explication of the meanings of 'unknown, action without purpose' and 'lie, deception, illusion' in German has been revealed. It has been established that the symbolic meanings of 'intensity' and 'aristocratic origin' are characteristic only of phraseological and paroemiological units of the German and Russian languages. The symbolic meanings 'lie, deceit, illusion' and 'beauty' are inherent in German and Tatar. We have concluded that the symbolic meaning of 'dream wish, happiness' is present in all three languages.
