Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the research of linguistic representation of some spheres of life which are conceptualized by means of the FLOW metaphor in Russian and in English. The analysis is based on concrete linguistic material, especially Russian and English sentences in which certain spheres become ordered in the terms of directed movement of liquid. The material investigated is Russian and English fiction and corpora. It is proved that in the Russian and English languages the FLOW metaphor takes place when talking about emotions, thoughts, memory, time, etc. The research has shown that these spheres have spatial conceptualization and that there are common features as well as differences in the linguistic world views in both languages.
