Abstract
The paper aims at analysis of processes and results of language reflections in the field of source “touch” in Czech and Russian comparison. Interrelations are numerous. It is supposed that the same source of perceiving touch makes possible to create a limited number of conceptual metaphors in similar schemas, e.g. “container” or “tube”. Nevertheless, they are often not identical neither in sense, nor in semantics in interlanguage comparison. Identical conceptual schemas are often different in word formation.

Key words: language reflections, field of source, touch, Czech and Russian comparison, conceptual metaphors and schemas
