The article considers the phenomenon of denotative meaning in English and Uzbek from the point of view of semantics, pragmatics and linguoculture. On one side, denotative meaning refers to the precise lexical contents of a linguistic unit while connotative meaning includes emotional, cultural, stylistic and social implications that add to the ambiguity in communication. Utilizing structuralist and semiotic theories, especially the contributions of Ferdinand de Saussure, Roland Barthes and Geoffrey Leech, this study demonstrates how connotation can be viewed as a second layer of meaning influenced by associative thought and culture coding. By finding comparative examples in English and Uzbek, the study investigates national views of the world reflected in connotative systems and sociocultural values. Those results underscore the significance of community in intercultural communication, translation studies.
