The global equivalence of speech and cultures plays a crucial role in typological linguistics and cross-cultural communication, forming the basis for studying numeral phraseological units from linguistic perspectives. This study analyses numeral idioms within Kazakh and English phraseological units, utilizing generalization, descriptive, and comparative methods. The findings highlight the distinct origins of concepts underlying Kazakh and English numerical phraseological words, leading to diverse classifications and perceptions. Both languages’ phraseological units with numerical elements feature significant morphosyntactic fixation and semantic idiomaticity, conveying global meaning in context. The development of numeral phraseology within equivalence and identity is shaped by culture-dependent mental structures. The cultural fusion in Kazakh and English reflects open and pluralistic affiliations. Despite ethnic strengthening and identity assertion, Turkic languages experience “linguistic extinction,” evident in limited usage of proverbs, expressions, and folk phraseological units. The study offers practical value for linguists, ethno-linguists, and related experts in various fields.
