Abstract

This article is dedicated to the linguocultural analysis of sarcasm and idioms in English and Uzbek languages. It examines their semantic features, historical roots, and cultural meanings, while analyzing the difficulties encountered in the translation process. Through various examples, the philosophical depth and cultural uniqueness of these means of expression are highlighted. Additionally, the impact of humor, irony, and metaphor in English is compared with life-advising proverbs characteristic of the Uzbek language, providing valuable insights for translators and linguists.
