Abstract
This article explores the linguocultural characteristics of ethnographisms in English and Uzbek languages. Ethnographisms, as carriers of cultural information, reflect the national mentality, traditions, and everyday life of a particular community. The study aims to analyze similarities and differences in the linguistic and cultural representations of ethnographic vocabulary in both languages. A comparative and descriptive method is used to identify semantic, cultural, and functional peculiarities. The results demonstrate that ethnographisms serve as a linguistic mirror of national culture and are vital for understanding the worldview and identity of the speakers.
