Abstract

This study explores the comparative semantics of color-denoting words in English and Uzbek languages. It examines how cultural, historical, and linguistic factors shape the meaning, connotation, and use of color terms in both languages. By analyzing similarities and differences in semantic structures, this paper provides insights into the conceptualization of colors in distinct linguistic and cultural contexts.
