LINGUACULTURAL COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF NATIVE PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS WITH SOMATICCOMPONENTS ON THE MATERIAL OF ENGLISH-UZBEK PHRASEOLOGY

Abstract

Language is regarded to be the most significant medium for not just communication and thinking expression, but also the accumulation of cultural knowledge. The identification of linguocultural elements of the text makes it possible to study linguocultural dominants, which, on the one hand, represent the culture of society, and on the other hand, are their verbal expression. The phraseology of a language, particularly English, has long piqued scientists’ interest and drawn their attention. Phraseological units are the main linguistic phenomena. They are figurative language devices that are used to embellish and enrich communication. Phraseologisms fill in the gaps of the language system, which is unable to completely name the new features of reality that humans have discovered. They are regarded as important sources of knowledge about the nation’s culture and mindset, as well as myth, legend, and tradition. This article provides a brief overview of phraseological units and how they use in different languages. The phraseological units are analyzed from linguistically point of view.
