Anthropomorphic metaphors are employed differently in various languages., which attribute human characteristics to non–human entities, they are a universal linguistic phenomenon shaped by cultural contexts. The purpose of this article is to describe characteristics of anthropomorphism in English and compare them with Russian and Uzbek which possess cultural significance. Through a comparative linguistic analysis of texts and proverbs, we identify patterns, semantic differences, and cultural underpinnings. The findings reveal distinct cultural lenses – unlike the English language which exercises individualism and rationality, the Russian language treats these concepts within collectivism and a more emotional context, resulting in vivid imagery and depth. In contrast, metaphors in the Uzbek language give emotions reason, situating them within nature, revealing an intuitive perception of humanity’s connection to the environment. By comparing their usage across languages, it is gained insights into how cultures conceptualize the world. This study focuses on English, Russian, and Uzbek, three languages rooted in distinct cultural and historical contexts: Anglo–Saxon individualism, Slavic collectivism, and Central Asian spiritual–naturalism.
