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

the 
following tasks
forward: 

to investigate theories on metaphor in English and Uzbek 

to compare and contrast traditional and conceptual metaphors

to examine mappings, which key point in conceptual metaphors 

to explain the notions of “conception”, conceptual analysis and its 
devices 

to differentiate culture and mentality 

to find out metaphors in terms of mentality in English and in Uzbek 
based on literary works and their lexico-stylistic features 

to do conceptual analysis of found metaphors in English and in 
Uzbek, and figure out their lexico-stylistic attributes 

to sort those discovered metaphors out
The scientific novelty of the research work. 
Metaphor is widely 
investigated in both English and Uzbek languages. Recently the term conceptual 
metaphor has entered to the field and it has also been fairly researched. However, 
metaphor in terms of mentality has not been touched yet, though some scholars did 
research on metaphor and culture. As we argue that culture and mentality are 
different notions, we show that discrepancy and further we will examine metaphors 
based on mentality. Furthermore, we will do conceptual analysis of them, which 
hasn’t been done by any scholars (on the materials “A tree grows in Brooklyn” by 
B.Smith and “Dunyoning ishlari” by U.Hoshimov). As we analyze them 
conceptually in English and Uzbek, following we categorize those investigated 
metaphors in certain notions

* Because in literary style we can meet any type of styles, like newspaper style, etc.

The practical value of the research work. 
Students and learners of 
various levels face with a problem namely ambiguity, that is to say one word can 
have several meanings. One of the sources of it is undoubtedly metaphor. If they 
know how to associate or why one word has several unrelated (actually in most 
cases they are commensurate) meanings, this would ease their learning process. 
The examples provided in our research work are of great value in this. Particularly, 
mappings (metaphorical expressions aroused by conceptual metaphors) can 
enlighten their understandings, and conceptual analyses could be helpful in 
figuring out the origins of certain words. Furthermore, it can be useful in seminar 
lessons of stylistics, lexicology, translation theory and practice and others.
