Masharipov jahongir axmedovich conceptual analysis of the components of metaphor with the elements of mentality in english and uzbek

o’g’rincha qarab qo’ydi
. 
The meaning here is almost the same, whereas parts of speech are different. In 
English stole a look is verb, while in English o’g’rincha is adverb. 
FACE IS FLEXIBLE OBJECT 
Admittedly, you can do somehow some actions with your face, but there are 
such metaphoric expressions such as 
Her face 
twisted
 with fury, I was 
pulling
 silly 
faces to make the baby laugh, 
that one acknowledges that they are metaphorical. 
There can be equivalents similar in meaning, but they do not have complete 
correspondence. Their translations in Uzbek will be 
Uning yuzi jahldan burishib 
ketdi, Men chaqaloqni kuldirish uchun yuzimni burishtirdim.
RELIANCE IS COUNTING 
When we want to make sure of something or somebody, what we usually 
do? I contend that we count! For example, you have taken money from somebody, 
in order to assure yourself you count them; in most cases when we ascertain 
something, we often work out, do some calculations.
I can’t tell you how much I’m counting on you 
Men senga qanchalik ishonishimni aytib bera olmayman

Conceptual analysis of metaphors in Uzbek with the elements of 
mentality (on the basis of “Dunyoning ishlari” by Utkir Hoshimov) 
and their lexico-stylistic features 
Now, let us do what we are doing vice versa, i.e. from Uzbek into English. 
In the previous paragraph we chose English statements and tried to give their 
Uzbek versions, now we present Uzbek utterances based on certain conceptual 
metaphors with mentality elements and then we will try to illustrate English 
versions of them, if there is no such correspondence, we will present word-for-

word translations. Yet, bear in mind that, since our work is mostly aimed at 
English, our conceptual metaphors will be given in English.
SILENCE IS DOWN 
Actually this metaphorical expression somehow coincides with English too, 
in the expressions like 
turn down, …. 
In the Uzbek language there is an example 
like
 
Shu qadar og’ir sukunat chokadiki.. 
There was such heavy silence
Metaphoric expression has been lost 
THE MOON IS A BIRD 
THE MOON, STARS, WIND ARE HUMAN 
These conceptual metaphors are also widespread, as the moon can be seen 
worldwide. The first conceptual metaphor does not have an equivalent in English, 
as there is no mentality relating the moon and birds.
