This article discusses the proverbs as paremic units, their features, differences from related phenomena, the study of Uzbek folk proverbs and morphological system. The environment is a complex object of perception for human beings. A nation's way of life cannot understand the diversity of the surrounding reality throughout its life, adapt to it, and develop acceptable ways of living.
