Abstract
Each nation, based on its national views, portrays the image of women differently in its literature. In Uzbek literature, the image of women is depicted as mothers, wives, and housewives, while in English literature, in addition to these, women also perform roles such as businesswomen, entrepreneurs, and employees. This article undertakes a comparative cognitive analysis of the concept "woman" (English) and "ayol" (Uzbek), exploring the cultural models and conceptual metaphors associated with each term. By examining semantic networks, metaphorical extensions, and socio-cultural contexts, the study reveals both similarities and significant differences in how these concepts are understood and represented in the two languages. The analysis demonstrates the impact of cultural values and linguistic structures on the cognitive representation of gender.
