This study investigates the linguocultural features of the concept of “greeting” as it is realized in the paremiological (proverbial) texts of English, Uzbek, and Russian languages. Paremiology provides a unique lens to explore how culture, social values, and linguistic norms shape the expression and function of greetings across different societies. Through a comparative analysis of selected proverbs and sayings, this article reveals the underlying cultural ideologies, communication patterns, and social expectations encoded within greeting-related paremia. The findings demonstrate distinct national-cultural traits manifested in language usage, metaphorical expressions, and pragmatic functions, thereby contributing to the fields of intercultural communication, cognitive linguistics, and folklore studies.
