Comparative Analysis of Figurative Comparisons in The English and Uzbek

Abstract

Comparisons conceptualize the body of human knowledge about the world and its fragments, reflect the traits of people's mentalities, and aid in the generational transmission of national standards and stereotypes. The study of comparisons has been the subject of numerous works, but none of them addressed comparisons from a linguocultural or comparative perspective. Studying figurative comparisons between English and Uzbek from the perspective of how language and culture interact, as well as how well speakers of both languages are able to exchange cultural information and reflect social phenomena, seems pertinent. It is important to remember that English and Uzbek comparisons do not always have the same foundation.
