Key Points

  • This study aims to investigate idioms formed with animal names in Turkey and Uzbek Turkish from a semantic perspective.
  • Comparative analysis of animal names and idioms in both Turkish dialects.
  • Identification of 121 animal names in Turkish leading to 270 idioms and 115 names in Uzbek resulting in 140 idioms.
  • Semantic assessment of frequently used animal names: horse, dog, and camel.
  • 29 idioms contain common animal names in both dialects.
  • Horse is depicted positively in both dialects but is more idealized in Uzbek and humorously critical in Turkish.
