Verbalization of the Concept Word in Lexical Level (the English, Russian, Uzbek Languages)

The article deals with the comparative analysis of the verbalization of the concept Word at the lexical level in the English, Russian and Uzbek languages. The analysis of the representation of the concept Word/ Сўз/Word was carried out on the basis of lexicographic data given in the explanatory dictionaries of the English, Russian and Uzbek languages. The results of the analysis showed that in spite of being one of the universal concepts peculiar to any language and linguaculture, the concept Word has a number of culturally specific features of representation in each of the languages. The analysis revealed that the meanings of the concept Word can be subdivided into linguistic and philosophical-religious zones. The linguistic zone is represented by meanings, most of which are common to all languages under consideration (word is a unit of speech, language unit, text, proverb, conversation). The philosophical-religious zone is represented by meanings inherent only to the English and Russian languages (the Word is the Bible, the Word is Jesus Christ, the Word is Logos), which is explained by the commonality of religious and philosophical views of these cultures.
