Аннотация: Similes in Kazakh, English, German is a comparative study that delves into the structural, semantic, and cultural characteristics of similes across three distinct languages: Kazakh, English, and German. The book offers a comprehensive analysis of similes, exploring how each language uses metaphorical comparisons to convey vivid imagery, emotions, and cultural values. This work examines the similarities and differences in how these languages create analogies, focusing on the unique linguistic structures, affixes, and lexemes that shape similes in each language. Through cross-linguistic examples, the book reveals the ways similes capture universal concepts such as beauty, bravery, and innocence while also reflecting culturally specific ideas rooted in each language’s unique worldview. Readers gain insight into the cultural expressions of each language, from the nature-inspired similes of Kazakh, influenced by nomadic traditions, to the familiar idiomatic expressions of English and the precise, often philosophical nature of German comparisons. This book serves as an essential resource for linguists, translators, language educators, and students interested in cross-cultural semantics and phraseology. By bridging the differences and highlighting the nuances of similes in Kazakh, English, and German, it enriches the reader's understanding of comparative linguistics and the deeper meanings conveyed by figurative language.
