Realization of The Concept Of "Justice" In Uzbek And English Phraseology
Abstract
This article analyzes the realization of the concept of "justice" in phraseological units of the Uzbek and English languages using a comparative linguocultural approach. The research examines justice-related phrases in both languages from semantic, pragmatic, and cultural perspectives, revealing their intrinsic connection to national thinking and social values. In Uzbek phraseological units, the concept of justice is primarily expressed in relation to moral norms, collective responsibility, and social balance. In English phrases, this concept is more frequently associated with ideas of legal equality, individuality, and personal freedom. The article demonstrates that phraseological units are a crucial means of expressing national culture, historical experience, and mentality through language. The research findings contribute to the development of comparative phraseology, cognitive linguistics, and the theory of intercultural communication.
