Abstract
Onomatopoeias are powerful tools in language, encapsulating sounds that signify emotions and actions through phonetic mimicry. This paper provides a comparative analysis of laughter and crying onomatopoeias in Uzbek and English, seeking to uncover both phonological and cultural influences on these expressions of universal human emotion. By examining the linguistic forms and social contexts surrounding laughter and crying sounds, this study reveals how sound symbolism varies across cultures and how these variations reflect deeper emotional and cultural patterns. Through qualitative analysis, this study explores the underlying mechanisms of onomatopoeic formation in each language, as well as how these mechanisms relate to socio-linguistic practices. The findings contribute to the growing body of research on the role of onomatopoeia in emotional communication, shedding light on how different cultures encode and interpret sound-based expressions of laughter and crying.
