LEXICAL-SEMANTIC AND ONOMASTIC CHARACTERISTICS OF BIRD NAMES IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK

Abstract

It is known that myths and legends occupy a very important place in world literature. If we look at the literature of any nation, we can see that myths and fairy tales embody the nation's way of life and characteristics. Despite the fact that the main heroes of myths and fairy tales may change in the literature of different nations, they are all images of goodness and goodness. Although some of these images do not exist in real life, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are popular with people through their images in fairy tales and legends. When we compare mythological images in English and Uzbek literature, we can see differences as well as common features between mythological images in the literature of these two nations.
