Abstract
This article describes the use of adverbs with the prefix po- for the purposes of comparison in the Russian language. The comparative semantics and culturally significant meanings of the adverbs po-chelovecheski and po-lyudski are provided. An analysis of language material is carried out using the methods of structural semantics. Features of the adverbs are revealed in their comparison with the clauses «kak chelovek, kak lyudi». The synonymous relations of the language units, their similarities and differences are considered. This article shows that the field of synonymy is composed of sentences reflecting the human behavioural sphere, while the differences are related to ideas concerned with ethical standards.
