Abstract

This article explores the linguocultural representation of the concepts of good and evil in English and Karakalpak proverbs. The study focuses on proverbs containing the lexical units good and evil, revealing how moral values are directly encoded in Karakalpak folklore. Through comparative semantic and cultural analysis, it is demonstrated that Karakalpak proverbs emphasize social harmony, labor, and collective responsibility, while English proverbs tend to reflect individual ethics and abstract reasoning. Furthermore, the findings show that although both traditions share universal moral principles such as causality and justice, their linguistic realization differs significantly in terms of metaphor, explicitness, and cultural orientation.
