This article is dedicated to the comparative analysis of Uzbek and English metaphors based on the criteria of equivalence and difference. Metaphors constitute a fundamental component of human thought and worldview, forming uniquely across different cultures. The study examines the semantic, linguocultural, and cognitive aspects of metaphorical units, as well as issues of equivalence in translation. Special attention is given to the cultural connotation of metaphors and their impact on comprehension. The article holds both theoretical and practical significance for comparative linguistics, translation studies, and linguoculturology.
