Abstract

This article examines the national and cultural characteristics of family traditions in English and Karakalpak societies from a comparative linguocultural perspective. He explores how both cultures value the family as a central social institution, but differ in terms of traditions, rituals, and social roles. While English families emphasize religious traditions such as individualism, housewarming, and baptism and godfatherhood, Karakalpak families focus on community values, extended family roles, and complex rituals such as umbilical cutting, spraying, and chillakhana. The article highlights how both cultures have preserved their unique family traditions, reflecting their worldview, values, and social development. The role of matchmaking, parental responsibilities, and ritual customs will also be discussed. The role of matchmaking, parental responsibilities, and ritual customs are also discussed, and both universal and culturally specific elements of family life are shown.
