Abstract
Аim. The paper examines the role of metaphorical competence in the educational process, its importance for teaching Russian as a foreign language (RAFL).
The aim of the paper is to determine the influence of metaphorical competence on the students’ professional training and to characterize methodological approaches to its formation.
Research methods include the analysis of scientific literature, content analysis of educational standards (FSES HE) and comparative analysis of curricula.
The results show that metaphorical competence promotes the development of students' communicative and intercultural skills, improves their ability to interpret texts and adapt to different linguistic contexts.
The conclusions of the study confirm the need for a systematic inclusion of the development of metaphorical competence in educational programs to improve the effectiveness of language and pedagogical training of future specialists.
