This study explores the linguistic structures of anthropomorphic expressions in the English and Uzbek languages, examining their grammatical forms, semantic functions, and cultural significance. Using a comparative IMRAD-based methodology, the research identifies universal patterns in the use of anthropomorphism, such as the attribution of human qualities to non-human entities, and highlights key structural similarities like verb-based and adjective-noun constructions. However, the study also uncovers significant differences: English anthropomorphisms tend to emphasize individual agency and emotion, whereas Uzbek expressions often carry moral and spiritual connotations, rooted in oral and poetic traditions. Drawing on the theoretical frameworks of Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Cultural Linguistics, the paper demonstrates how anthropomorphism serves not only as a stylistic device but also as a cultural tool for meaning-making. The research contributes to a deeper understanding of figurative language, cultural identity, and cognitive processes underlying metaphorical expression. It also offers practical implications for translation, education, and cross-cultural communication.
