DESCRIBTION OF THE CONCEPTS FLORA, NATURE, AND ANIMALS IN THE WORK "OLD MAN AND THE SEA" BY ERNEST HEMINGWAY
Abstract
This article analyzes the conceptual landscape of flora, nature, and animals in Ernest Hemingway’s “Old Man and the Sea.” Previous studies have not examined the system of means used to express these concepts or their translation in a comparative framework. The lack of research on the linguistic and cultural characteristics of these concepts in English and Uzbek, as well as on the semantic-pragmatic analysis of expressive lexical units, motivates this study. Concept formation begins with the birth of an individual image and culminates in the emergence of a linguistic unit. This article defines the concept in accordance with various linguists and illustrates it with examples, emphasizing the significance of isomorphic and allomorphic differentiation in English and Uzbek.
