Abstract

The interaction between languages often carries significant cultural implications, especially in multilingual societies. This paper examines the influence of Russian culture on the vocabulary and phraseology of the Karakalpak language, a member of the Turkic language family spoken primarily in Uzbekistan. Given the historical context of Russian colonization and the subsequent Soviet era, this study aims to highlight how Russian has shaped the lexicon and idiomatic expressions in Karakalpak. The findings indicate that while the Karakalpak language has maintained its core Turkic identity, Russian influence is evident in both everyday language and cultural expressions.
