Keywords:
paremiology, aphorism, comparative linguistics, Uzbek literature, English literature, semantic analysis, cultural linguistics, proverb studiesAbstract
This article examines the semantic, structural, and cultural characteristics of aphorisms in Uzbek and English within the framework of modern paremiology and linguistic anthropology. While aphorisms are universally recognized as concise verbal expressions containing philosophical or moral insight, their linguistic realization and cultural symbolism vary across languages and societies. This study identifies key similarities and differences between Uzbek and English aphorisms, focusing on their thematic patterns, stylistic devices, and cultural functions. The paper analyzes both classical and contemporary sources, demonstrating how aphorisms operate as culturally charged linguistic units that preserve traditional worldviews and collective memory. The findings contribute to the comparative study of wisdom literature and highlight the role of aphorisms in forming national identity and moral consciousness.
