Linguistic and Cognitive Representations of Luck and Misfortune: a Comparative Study of Uzbek and English
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In the fields of linguistics and cultural studies, the conceptualization of luck and misfortune plays a vital role in understanding how language encodes human cognition and social values. These abstract concepts not only influence the construction of linguistic expressions but also reflect speakers’ worldviews and the cultural narratives embedded in their societies [1][2]. The linguistic landscape across languages reveals that expressions denoting fortune and misfortune are often shaped by both collective cultural experience and individual perception.
