Abstract
The aim of the article is to compare the value “work” in German and Austrian linguistic cultures. The research material is the data of free associative experiments conducted with native speakers of German and Austrian linguistic cultures, presented in the Austrian-German-Russian associative dictionary of basic values. The field method and subjective scaling are used in processing the material. The comparative method, analysis and synthesis, and quantitative processing of experimental data are used to study the material. As a result, it was found that the attitude of German and Austrian respondents to work is different. For German respondents, work is a way to achieve material benefits, while for Austrian respondents, it is an opportunity for self-realization and career success.
