A.U. Khamrakulova , Teacher of SamSIFLAbstract
This article explores the linguocultural characteristics of nature imagery in English and Uzbek languages, focusing on their cultural, historical, and aesthetic dimensions. Nature imagery serves as a reflection of each nation’s worldview, traditions, and values. English nature imagery is often associated with aesthetic appreciation and romanticism, while Uzbek imagery emphasizes cultural traditions and national identity. By comparing linguistic expressions and cultural connotations, this study highlights the similarities and differences in the representation of nature, revealing how language embodies cultural heritage. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the interplay between language and culture and promote intercultural awareness.
