Abstract

This article investigates the forms of manifestation of the phenomenon of linguistic redundancy in Uzbek linguistics and their functional-stylistic roles in speech. The focus of the research is on the relationship between the phenomena of pleonasm, anti-ellipsis, and perissology, as well as the issue of defining their semantic and syntactic boundaries. The article scientifically substantiates that pleonasm is not merely a speech defect but a tool that ensures the clarification of concepts and semantic saturation in artistic discourse. Furthermore, a comparative analysis is conducted on the deliberate preservation of sentence elements where ellipsis is possible (anti-ellipsis) and the unjustified prolongation of speech (perissology). As a result of the analysis, the differentiating features of these forms of redundancy are systematized based on a table. The research findings indicate that the interaction between the principles of economy and redundancy in the linguistic system serves to increase the pragmatic effectiveness of speech. This work holds significant theoretical and practical importance for researchers in the fields of speech culture, stylistics, and text linguistics.
