A LINGUO-CULTURAL APPROACH TO THE CLASSIFICATION OF ARCHAISMS IN FRENCH AND UZBEK

Abstract
This article offers a comparative study of archaisms in the French and Uzbek languages from a linguo-cultural perspective. Archaisms, which are obsolete terms or expressions, provide valuable insight into the linguistic and cultural evolution of societies. This article explores how archaisms differ not only in their form and usage but also in their specific cultural context in each language. By classifying archaisms into different categories and analyzing their historical and modern usages, this study aims to demonstrate how language preserves cultural memory and reflects values specific to French and Uzbek societies. This work is highly useful for linguists, historical linguistics scholars, and intercultural researchers interested in the evolutionary and cultural aspects of language.
