Abstract

This article deals with one of the actively discussed problems in phraseology of English and Uzbek languages. As we know, phraseological units are divided into several groups according to semantic, structure and grammar points of view. Idioms that have toponimic components represent this or that nation’s culture, history, traditions, customs, rituals and mentality. Such phraseological units are closely linked to etymology and origins of lexical units related to geography of the location. This article focuses on samples of idioms with toponimic elements.
