Ushbu maqolada ingliz va o‘zbek tillaridagi “milk/sut” konseptining konseptosferadagi o‘rni, uning lingvokulturologik, kognitiv, semantik va frazeologik xususiyatlari tahlil qilinadi. “Milk/sut” konsepti inson hayoti, oziqlanish, onalik, poklik, mehr-shafqat, baraka va milliy qadriyatlar bilan bog‘liq ko‘p qatlamli madaniy birlik sifatida qaraladi. Tadqiqotda ingliz tilidagi “the milk of human kindness”, “to cry over spilt milk”, “a land of milk and honey” kabi iboralar hamda o‘zbek tilidagi “sutdek pok”, “sutdan oq, suvdan toza”, “sutini oqlamoq”, “sutdan og‘zi kuygan qatiqni ham puflab ichadi” kabi frazeologik birliklar qiyosiy tahlil qilinadi. Natijalar shuni ko‘rsatadiki, har ikki tilda “milk/sut” konsepti biologik ma’nodan tashqari, madaniy, axloqiy va ramziy mazmun kasb etadi.

This article examines the place of the “milk/sut” concept in the English and Uzbek conceptual spheres as well as its linguocultural, cognitive, semantic, and phraseological features. The “milk/sut” concept is interpreted as a multi-layered cultural unit associated with human life, nourishment, motherhood, purity, kindness, prosperity, and national values. The study provides a comparative analysis of English phraseological units such as “the milk of human kindness,” “to cry over spilt milk,” and “a land of milk and honey,” alongside Uzbek expressions including “sutdek pok,” “sutdan oq, suvdan toza,” “sutini oqlamoq,” and “sutdan og‘zi kuygan qatiqni ham puflab ichadi.” The findings reveal that the “milk/sut” concept in both languages extends beyond its biological meaning and acquires cultural, moral, and symbolic significance.
