Abstract
This study explores the pedagogical value of proverbs in multilingual education, focusing on English, Russian, and Uzbek proverbs. Proverbs are culturally rich linguistic units that convey collective wisdom and social values. Integrating proverbs in language teaching not only enhances vocabulary and language skills but also promotes intercultural competence. Through comparative analysis and empirical evidence, this research highlights effective teaching methods for using proverbs in multilingual classrooms, fostering students’ critical thinking and cultural awareness.
