COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF NON-EQUIVALENT LEXICONS AND REALIAS IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK LANGUAGES

Abstract

The notion of non-equivalent words and realias expresses the unique cultural characteristics, practices, and concepts that are specific to a particular language and culture. In this study, we examine non-equivalent lexicons in English and Uzbek to explore how these linguistic differences shape the expression and perception of meaning in both languages. By comparing and contrasting the lexicons of these two languages, we aim to uncover the underlying cultural influences and linguistic mechanisms that contribute to their different lexical structures. Through this comparative analysis, we hope to deepen our understanding of linguistic diversity and enhance intercultural communication
