Abstract

This article presents a comparative linguistic and cultural analysis of regional food names in English and Uzbek. Culinary terms carry not only linguistic meaning but also deep cultural and historical significance. The article explores the lexical structure, semantic features, and translation challenges of food-related terminology in both languages, emphasizing the role of culture in naming and understanding traditional dishes. The study highlights the need for culturally sensitive approaches when translating or interpreting culinary terms across languages.
