Main Article Content
Abstract
This article provides a comparative analysis of the role of facial expressions and nonverbal communication in English and Karakalpak cultures. Facial expressions, including facial expressions, gestures, body language, and posture, play an important role in human communication and often complement or replace speech. The ways in which facial expressions are used vary in different cultures, and their communicative significance varies depending on social norms, historical context, and cultural values. The article examines in detail the specific aspects of facial expressions, facial expressions, gestures, and body movements in English and Karakalpak cultures.
