Abstract: We present an exploratory Cultural-Linguistic study of the usage of the word honor in Pakistani and Indian Englishes within two corpora of Pakistani English and Indian English. Applying relatively simple corpus methodology, we address cultural conceptualizations of the notion of honor as reflected in observed usage within the corpora. More specifically, usage of the word seems to reflect honor as a complex cultural model involving multiple cultural schemas, cultural categories and cultural metaphors, in which women are protectors and upholders of the honor of men, families, and communities, and women's bodies are the very locus of men's honor and communal honor.
