Abstract

This article is devoted to revealing of national-cultural specificity of image-bearing means in the English and Uzbek languages. The main part of the article reveals the imagery at all language levels with the help of examples by comparing in two languages: English and Uzbek in order to see specific national image. Obviously, the imagery is analyzed at the phonetic, lexical, and phraseological levels. As for phonetic level, alliteration and assonance can be worked on in the article. By means of lexical level some words express the national image of the country. Furthermore, some phraseological units can be an example for expressing national-cultural specificity of the Uzbek and English languages. For example, “egg-head”, – “Oltinbosh”; “blear-eyed”, – “ko`zini yog` bosgan”; “air-monger”,“castle builder”, – “parishonxotir”. In conclusion we can say that, although the concepts were reflected in many languages, when we analyzed the Uzbek and English language materials, we encountered phonetic, lexical, and phraseological differences.
