Abstract

This article examines linguocultural lacuna found in English and Uzbek folklore from a linguocultural perspective. Using the legendary figures of King Arthur, Robin Hood, Shirak, and Tumaris, the paper analyzes cultural concepts, semantic gaps, translation challenges, and discourse-specific features within a comprehensive analytical framework. The results contribute to the development of linguoculturology, translation studies, and intercultural communication theory.
