The task of the research is to identify the types and types of linguistic and cultural representations that arise as a result of such interpenetration and to determine their role in teaching a foreign language. Linguistic and cultural representations related to the features and traditions of the French, historical figures and statements of prominent historical figures are analyzed. It was also investigated which linguistic and cultural representations of the French language influence the modern mentality of the French.
