A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE LINGUISTIC AND CULTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF MODERN UNITS OF MEASUREMENTS IN UZBEK AND ENGLISH LANGUAGES

Аннотация

This article explores the linguistic and cultural characteristics of modern units of measurement in the Uzbek and English languages through a comparative lens. The study uncovers how linguistic systems encode measurement concepts and how culture shapes terminology. Using lexical-semantic and historical-linguistic methods, the research identifies similarities and differences in naming patterns, semantic motivation, and cultural associations. The findings offer insights into the interaction between language, cognition, and sociocultural context in forming and using measurement units.
