The article is devoted to consideration of animalistic vocabulary in Kazakh and English. The purpose is to consider animalistic vocabulary based on Kazakh and English animal tales from the linguocultural and comparative aspects. Despite the universality of animalistic vocabulary, research in this area is limited. Animalistic vocabulary reflects the relationship between language and culture, linguocultural information related to the way of life, traditions, and beliefs of the Kazakh and English peoples. The article identifies similarities and differences in animalistic vocabulary in Kazakh and English. As part of our research methodology, comparative and linguocultural analysis of lexical units from English fairy tales about animals and their counterparts in Kazakh was carried out. Fairy tales about animals were collected in both languages, the meaning of animal-related vocabulary was identified, and their shared and unique cultural characteristics were analyzed. As a result, ethnocultural codes unique to a particular nation were identified and analyzed. It has been observed that the accumulated human experience is determined in culture by various character systems. The scientific value of the article is determined from the linguistic and cultural points of view on the world perception and cognition problem based on animalistic vocabulary. The results of the study can be practically used in preparation of such courses as fairy tale discourse, and cognitive linguistics.
