Comparative and Contrastive Analysis of Phraseological Units in English and Uzbek Languages
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents a comparative and contrastive analysis of English phraseological units (PUs) and their equivalents in Uzbek, exploring the linguistic, cultural, and structural similarities and differences between the two languages. The study highlights how phraseological units, such as idioms and proverbs, are used to convey meanings that are deeply embedded in the cultural and historical contexts of each language. Through the analysis of semantic equivalence, structural variation, and cultural specificity, the paper demonstrates that while some PUs in English and Uzbek share common meanings and universal themes, many are shaped by distinct cultural values and experiences.
