Abstract

his thesis explores how cultural contexts shape the formation and interpretation of
anthropomorphic expressions in language. It argues that anthropomorphism functions not only as a stylistic
device but also as a cognitive and cultural model reflecting human thought. Comparative analysis of English
and Uzbek languages reveals that while both humanize nature, religion, emotions, and values, their
meanings differ according to national culture – Uzbek emphasizing moral and spiritual aspects, and English
focusing on aesthetic and individual ones. Modern usage in technology and advertising is also discussed.
