Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The article analyses the linguistic and cultural representation of the ideal of the “perfect person” (komil inson) in Uzbek proverbs expressing personal spirituality from linguoculturological and cognitive perspectives. The relationship between the notions of linguocultureme, frame and concept is substantiated, and a seven-slot model of the paremic frame (subject – quality – action – image – result – evaluation – antipode) is proposed. The frames, cultural codes and evaluative markers of the linguoculturemes “scholar”, “hard-working”, “honest”, “modest”, “courageous”, “polite in speech”, “hospitable” and “patriot” are identified, and the core–periphery structure of the conceptual field “perfect person” is described. Keywords: proverb, paremiology, linguoculturology, linguocultureme, paremic frame, concept, perfect person, personal spirituality, axiological evaluation
