Abstract

Language is not only a means of communication but also a reflection of a country’s worldview, beliefs, and collective mindset. The way national thought is formed and expressed is strongly influenced by linguocultural concepts, which carry cultural meanings beyond their literal definitions. These concepts are often embedded in idioms, fixed expressions, and key vocabulary, allowing speakers to convey culturally specific ideas in everyday communication.
