Abstract

This article examines the structural and semantic characteristics of color lexemes in the Karakalpak and Russian languages. A comparative study of the structural features of agglutinative Karakalpak and inflectional Russian reveals several similarities and differences determined by their typological nature. The analysis of the semantic category of colorative lexemes establishes a contrast between Karakalpak and Russian—ranging from nominative components to associative meanings—which highlights the cultural and linguistic uniqueness of each language.
