"FAMILY" AS A LINGUOCULTURAL CONCEPT: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH AND UZBEK PAREMIOLOGICAL UNITS

Main Article Content

Abstract:

This article investigates the linguocultural concept of "family" through a comparative analysis of paremiological units in English and Uzbek languages. The research demonstrates how the concept of family is expressed and interpreted in two distinct cultures through proverbs and sayings. The article analyzes the reflection of values, traditions, and worldviews of English and Uzbek peoples regarding family through language. The results indicate that while both cultures value family as a crucial social institution, paremiological expressions reveal culture-specific distinctions.
