Through a detailed examination of lexical and semantic features, the study reveals how different cultures express emotions in multimedia contexts. By analyzing a corpus of TV series, the article highlights both universal and culturally specific ways of expressing emotions in English and Uzbek, reflecting individualistic versus collectivist societal values. The findings contribute to the understanding of how emotional language functions in media and opens new pathways for future cross-cultural studies of emotion.
