Summary/Abstract: This article considers tagging methods for parallel Russian-Polish phrasemathic objects. In particular, an opinion about the annotation tool brat v1.3.is given. This online tool offers a palette of possibilities for classifying words and phrases in parallel texts. Working with this software is largely simplified by a user-friendly interface, and therefore working with the corpus does not cause difficulties for philologists and translators who do not have programming skills. As an example of such a classification, the layout of the metadata system for tagging Russian and Polish parallel phrasemes is described. These resources allow experience to be gathered and concurrent objects to be categorized in the workshop of a translator. As an example, the article presents the tagging of Verb-Noun of the text classified as collocation phrasemes, for example, погасить свет. The status of Verb-Noun constructions is also discussed, which, according to a number of factors, relate to autonomous phrases, although with the status of “free compatibility”, for example, поехать в клуб. A number of recommendations is proposed for the configuration of parallel texts at the level of single sentences.
