Summary/Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the similarities in some phraseological units containing numerals and is based on selected phraseological material from two Balkan languages – Bulgarian and Romanian, as well as on phraseological equivalents from other languages, including Albanian, Greek, Russian and English. Based on the theory of the existence of a dominant component among the phraseological unit’s elements, which may be considered the semantic core of the idioms, the purpose of the proposed analysis is to illustrate that numerals play a significant role in constructing the phraseological semantics, despite the rule that phraseological units are stable word-groups with partially or fully transferred meanings.
