Using the frame approach, the structure of the concept 'Russian language' is determined, including frames and subframes. It was revealed that the greatest interest among the Chinese is in education in Russian, so the frame 'Russian language' - education" was specified with the subframes 'graduate studies', 'study of the Rus-- sian language', 'levels of Russian language proficiency', 'teacher of the Russian language'.
