THE LINGUOCULTURAL FEATURES OF JEWELRY TERMINOLOGY IN UZBEK AND ENGLISH

Oybibi Atabekovna Yakubova ,

Abstract

This study is devoted to investigating the linguocultural codes and national concepts expressed in jewelry terminology in the Uzbek and English languages. Jewelry terminology not only denotes various ornaments and decorative items but also embodies cultural values, historical traditions, social identity, aesthetic ideals, and symbolic meanings that have developed over centuries. From a linguocultural perspective, jewelry-related lexical units function as cultural signs reflecting the national worldview and collective memory. The main aim of the study is to identify the similarities and differences in the semantic, cultural, and conceptual structures of jewelry terminology in Uzbek and English based on linguocultural and cognitive linguistic approaches.

Keywords

jewelry terminology, linguocultural code, national concepts, linguocultural studies, cognitive linguistics, Uzbek language, English language, comparative linguistics, cultural semantics, ethnolinguistics, conceptual analysis, symbolism, cultural identity, lexical semantics, intercultural communication.
