The language phenomenon, which is described as the cornerstone of communication, is a cultural and dynamic structure that is transferred from generation to generation, but this structure disappears and dies over time due to the lack of speakers, not being transferred to other generations or suppressed by other languages. The concept of endangered languages defines this extinction and deals with the degree of extinction of languages, its causes and measures on the basis of certain classifications. Many languages spoken in many parts of the world are in danger of extinction today. One of these languages, Chuvash, which has the most archaic features of the Turkish language family, is also an endangered Turkic language. This study aims to label the concepts represented by the idioms in Chuvash and Turkish in which one of the constituents is the word göz, and to compare them with the concepts represented by the idioms, and to determine whether the similarities between these two languages suggest a common cultural cognition. In the study, 83 idioms constituted with the word göz in Chuvash were listed, and these idioms were labeled with 22 concepts. A total of 175 idioms with göz as one of the constituents were listed in Turkish and these idioms were labeled with 29 concepts. The findings indicate the most frequently labeled concepts in both languages are common, but it has been observed that these findings do not present a common cultural cognition on the basis of the concepts.
