Abstract: The study of ornithonyms is being extensively studied by linguists. Ornithonyms in Uzbek and English have a polysemantic character. This article discusses the use of two types of bird names in phrases and proverbs: 1) Swallow and 2) Nightingale. The use of these birds in Uzbek is presented as a small linguistic study of their use in proverbs and sentences. The results show that the ornithonyms in two languages, firstly created over centuries, next, constitute a well-shaped system. Many bird terms reflect features of appearance. In dialects, different names for the same birds may occur, as observed in the sources.
Key words: bird names, phrases, adverbs, swallow, nightingale, lexemes, language.
