Annotation: The growing interest in identity processes in a globalizing world causes increased attention to languages and cultures. Concepts, as linguistic signs of reflection of the world in the mind of a person, are considered as possible grounds for preserving cultural identity. The author analyzes the meanings of concepts and in the course of linguo-culturological analysis reveals them in phraseological units. The author conducted a research of the concepts of Arbeit, Geld, Sparsamkeit (work, money, savings), fixed them in German phraseological units and determined the basis for the classification of phraseological units, both in terms of language and in terms of the culture of the German nation. Research of these concepts has shown that each concept has a meaning inherent in this culture, which is revealed only in phraseological units. For example, the concept “Arbeit” is directly proportional to the remuneration of labor, which is reflected in the phraseological units: Wie die Arbeit, so der Lohn – what kind of work, such and payment; Arbeit ist der Mühe Lohn – work is a concern for salary; Vom Tellerwäscher zum Millionär – from dishwasher to millionaire; Klein Geld, kleine Arbeit – small money – a little work. These phraseological units shows such interrelation as “work = money (salary)”. Also a lot of German phraseological units have such meaning as “saving is earning”, for example, Spare was, dann hast du was, Wer spart, wenn er hat, der hat, wenn er bedarf, Heute zechen, morgen nichts zu brechen, etc. Therefore, concepts “Arbeit”, “Geld”, “Sparsamkeit“ (work, money, economy) are interconnected in the German culture and each of concepts bring an own semantic potential of the meaning. According to this semantic potential it is possible to unite in groups (to classify) phraseological units of German.
