Abstract

This article provides a theoretical analysis of linguocultural difficulties in translating somatic proverbs between different languages, particularly English and Uzbek. The research focuses on the interrelation of language, culture, and cognition in the process of proverb translation. Attention is paid to issues of cultural connotation, semantic loss, equivalence and non-equivalence, as well as metaphorical and literal translation strategies. The study argues that somatic proverbs, being culture-bound and metaphorical in nature, require a deep understanding of both source and target cultural systems to achieve adequate translation.
