The concept of space is the basic concept of human beings.It is the basic form of the existence of the objective world and the basic component of human life and consciousness.On the concept of space,each period,each discipline has its own understanding.The earliest understanding of space from the origin of human beings in the process of exploring the nature of the formation of the concept of time and space,the original concept of space and time have a strong sense of myth.These myths reflect the human in the process of conquering nature of the living space and the understanding of the original,on the initial understanding of the concept of space is the foundation of the development of human thinking,and with the development of human knowledge is constantly enriched.Humanities and Nature have different understandings of spatial concepts:Philosophy explains space as a form of existence of all matter,which is manifested in length,width and height,that is,space has three dimensions.In the classical physics,space is interpreted as a part of the material substance in the universe.In mathematics space is a collection of special properties and some additional structures.With the development of Aeronautics and Astronautics and related theories,scientists have put forward the concept of cosmic space.Space research has become the forefront of cutting-edge science and cutting-edge fields.In linguistics,the category of space is a semantic category,which is an explanation of linguistics to the category of space.It covers all aspects of the expression of spatial relations,such as morphology,syntax and vocabulary.The expression of spatial relations in any language can be divided into inner relation(meaning)and surface relation(form).However,due to various nationalities have different ways of thinking,expression and understanding of the spatial relationship of the differences also exist.From the perspective of cognitive linguistics,this paper illustrates the concept of the space,spatial relations,space category,Spatial orientation metaphor,etc.The constitution of the Russian-Chinese spatial relationship is summarized,and the similarities and differences of the main Russian-Chinese spatial metaphors are analyzed,aiming to deepen the mutual communication and understanding between the nations,and then have a more profound and comprehensive understanding of the Russian-Chinese spatial relations.
