How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the linguocultural code in proverbs reflecting family relations in the Kazakh and English languages. The purpose of the study: to reveal and analyze the peculiarities of the linguistic, cultural code in paremias about family relations based on the material of the Kazakh and English languages, with an emphasis on cultural meanings, values and worldview aspects reflected in proverbs and sayings. The main attention is paid to the analysis of how the cultural values, worldview and traditions of these peoples are expressed in brief expressions of proverbs. The authors examine specific linguistic and cultural codes that form the concept of ‘family relations’, as well as common and unique features characteristic of each studied cultures. A special place is occupied by the identification of semantic, figurative components that emphasize the national identity of the contrasted languages. Comparative analysis shows how universal values, such as, family values, respect for elders, mutual assistance and moral principles are transmitted through proverbs, taking into account ethnocultural characteristics. The study of the linguocultural code in proverbs allows us to identify how language and culture interact to convey values, worldview, social experience. This contributes to understanding the concept of ‘family relations’ through the prism of linguistic, cultural differences. Theoretical significance lies in identifying common and unique features in Kazakh and English cultures, which expands knowledge about the mechanisms of national identity formation through language. The study is based on linguistics, cultural studies, ethnolinguistics, which allows taking into account both linguistic and linguacultural aspects. The results of the study expand the understanding of the interaction of language and culture, and also contribute to a deeper understanding of intercultural communication. The proposed methods of comparative and semantic analysis can be applied in other studies aimed at studying cultural concepts in different languages. Keywords: paremia, proverbs and sayings, linguacultural code, national identity, family relations, cultural values, comparative analysis, language and culture.
