Abstract

There are stones on earth that have their own value, and those that have no specific value, and their names in language. In fact, the world of stones and their names also acquire a special beauty and value in the linguistic landscape of the world. Xrematonymy in Uzbek linguistics has been studied extremely poorly. There are practically no separate monographs devoted to the issues of stone names, their semantics and study. Indeed, in everyday life people widely use the names of precious stones, that is, xrematonyms, when choosing names for their sons and daughters, as expressions, proverbs, sayings, beautiful comparisons, metaphors, allegories. The names of precious stones migrated into masterpieces as a means of artistic expression. Our idea is confirmed by the effective use of the names of precious stones as a means of artistic expression in the works of Mir Alisher Navoi.
