Abstract. In this article I focused on metaphor and its features. We know that Uzbek writers and poets have interpreted and researched a lot about metaphor. In this article, I would like to explain them to you in English. This article can be used by young scientists, research students. the reason is that in their scientific work and during their creative research, they will have to use the word in a different sense. If they know the word metaphor and its basic meaning well, they can freely use it in their works. The article first presents examples from simple metaphors to mixed and extended metaphors. In order to make it more understandable for the reader, I have chosen the most popular expressions when choosing examples. Thanks, enjoy the information.

Keywords: Metaphor, simple metaphor, mixed and extended metaphor, figurative meaning, Uzbek metaphors and English metaphors.
