Abstract

This article investigates and compares idiomatic expressions related to colours in English and Karakalpak languages. Colours hold significant cultural and linguistic significance, often reflected in idiomatic expressions. Through a comparative analysis, this research aims to uncover similarities and differences in how colours are metaphorically used in these two languages. The methodology involves collecting a corpus of colour-related idioms from English and consulting native speakers and language experts to gather comparable idiomatic expressions in Karakalpak. The idioms are then analyzed in terms of their literal meanings, metaphorical interpretations, cultural contexts, and frequency of usage.
