STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF FIGURATIVE EXPRESSIONS IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK
Abstract
Figurative expressions, also known as stylistic figures or rhetorical devices in linguistics, are powerful tools that enhance the logical and aesthetic functions of language. These expressions play a significant role in literary and artistic discourse by not only enriching the language but also reflecting cultural and psychological aspects of a community. Figurative expressions, such as metaphors, metonymies, personification, similes, and others, contribute to deepening the meaning and impact of communication. The analysis of figurative expressions in both English and Uzbek languages provides valuable insights into the structural and semantic properties of these devices, as well as their cultural and linguistic nuances. This article presents a detailed structural analysis of figurative expressions in English and Uzbek, comparing their syntactic, morphological, and semantic characteristics.
