Abstract
Aim is to clarify the content of the concept of ‘language stereotype’ and to present the classification of linguistic stereotypes of the French language.
Methodology. The main content of the study is the analysis of language stereotypes of the French language in the work ‘Le Jacassin’ by Pierre Daninos. The main criteria for determining the type of stereotype are stability (a fixed structure and reproducibility), and idiomaticity, the semantic conjugacy of the elements of expression.
Results. The conducted analysis allowed us to identify six categories of units related to linguistic stereotypes: idioms, clichés, collocations, speech stereotypes, quotations and connotative stereotypes.
Research implications. The research suggests the definition of a linguistic stereotype and its distinction from related concepts (cliché, stamp, etc.).
