Keywords:
phraseology, idioms, Spanish language, Uzbek language, culture, semantics, metaphor, symbolic meaning, color expressionsAbstract
This paper explores the comparative phraseological systems of the Spanish and Uzbek languages through the lens of cultural semantics. The study highlights the linguistic, national, and cultural specificity of idioms and fixed expressions, revealing how metaphorical and symbolic structures reflect the worldview, values, and traditions of the respective language communities. Special attention is given to color-based idioms, zoomorphic and somatic phraseologisms, and their symbolic meanings. The research emphasizes both universal tendencies and culturally bound differences in figurative language, contributing to cross-linguistic understanding and phraseological theory.
