COLOUR IDIOMS IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK: THEIR MEANING AND COLOUR ASSOCIATIONS
Maqola haqida umumiy ma'lumotlar
This research aimed to explore differences in idiomatic expressions related to color in English and Uzbek cultures. It also sought to identify the challenges faced by language learners in comprehending these idioms in both languages, given their shared meanings and distinct associations. Both languages extensively use colour idioms, with various examples provided and explained. While the meanings of some idioms are straightforward, others, more obscure, might perplex foreign learners due to different cultural associations. Cross-cultural comparisons were made to uncover universal color associations and highlight significant differences between the two cultures. The study also revealed that many colour idioms originated from historical events, enriching languages as long as their intended meanings are clear. English teachers and Uzbek learners of English are encouraged to acknowledge these cross-cultural differences, recognizing them as both a potential challenge and an opportunity for improved learning outcomes.
