Keywords:

In short, this research explores the many layers of meaning (polysēmy) in terms used to talk about language (terminology) in English and Uzbek. By comparing these two languages, the study reveals both common ways of thinking about language and unique aspects shaped by each culture's history and background. The researchers analyzed real-world examples (corpus data) to uncover these hidden meanings. Interestingly, they found some surprising similarities in how the two languages view language, but also some key differences. This research can help improve language teaching, translation, and communication across cultures by making us more aware of the different meaning’s words can have.
