Abstract
This article investigates color-based toponyms in English and Uzbek from linguocultural and cognitive perspectives. Toponyms are not only geographical labels but also linguistic signs that preserve historical memory, ethnic experience, environmental perception, and cultural worldview. In Uzbek and English, place names containing color components such as white/oq, black/qora, red/qizil, green/yashil, blue/ko‘k, and yellow/sariq demonstrate how human communities perceive, classify, and conceptualize geographical space.
