Medical discourse, metaphor, terminologyAbstract
This article provides a comparative analysis of the linguistic features of metaphors found in medical texts in English and Uzbek. The study examines metaphor, metonymy, and other types of semantic transfer used in medical terminology and scientific texts. The results show that metaphors play an important role in the simple and understandable expression of complex scientific concepts in medical discourse. Although the use of metaphors in English and Uzbek medical texts has some common features, there are also specific differences under the influence of national language and culture.
