This study conducts a morphological comparison of phraseological units in English and Karakalpak, a Turkic language spoken in Karakalpakstan, Uzbekistan. Phraseological units, such as idioms, collocations and proverbs, exhibit unique morphological structures in different languages. The morphological features of English and Karakalpak phraseological units are analyzed and compared at the level of word classes, affixation and sentence structure. The results show both similarities and differences in the morphological makeup of phraseological units across the two languages.
