The paper examines linguacultural characteristics of English and Uzbek fairytales. The relevance of the study is determined by great interest of linguistic science to the issues of national and cultural specificity of folk texts, which is caused by peculiarities of historical development, beliefs, traditions and customs of people. The objective of the study is to reveal traditional and cultural characteristics of the English and Uzbek tales by means of their linguacultural analysis which is based on the plots of the similar fairytales in two languages. This paper is divided into two sections. The first section examines linguacultural features of the literary tales in two languages. They are characterised by the variety of lexical and stylistic means and a diversity of characters and plots. The second section gives an overview of differences and similarities of fairytales of two different western and eastern cultures. The results of the investigation can be effectively used for a further profound comparative analysis of sociolinguistic and linguacultural features of English and Uzbek tales. Keywords: linguocultural analysis; worldview; folk tales; literary tales; stylistic means; grammar; adaptation. In the process of globalisation that inevitably leads to mixing up cultures, it is of vital importance to save national and cultural identity. Not to disappear in a melting pot of nationalities, one should know more about his/her roots. The wisdom of people, their world outlook, traditions, and beliefs are expressed in tales. Fairytales stimulate imagination, creativity, and critical thinking skills, while also providing comfort, escapism, and teaching empathy. The moral lessons and values portrayed in fairytales can be applied to real-life situations, making them valuable tools for personal growth and development. We have also revealed male gender preference in folk tales. By incorporating fairytales into reading habits, readers can experience the transformative power of these timeless stories. Thus Albert Einstein once said “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” Also, fairy tales as a part of the folk narrative genre system, always serve for the development of literature, cultural exchanges, and importantly play a great role in the good raising of the young generations. Learning fairy tales from the scientific point of view is as important as its spirituality and ethical values. Comparatives studies can give us more access to learn the texts of fairy tales for which Uzbek and English nations, like others, have their own cultural and scientific aspects. 293
