Floristic Symbolism And Phytonymic Function In Contemporary Russian Young Adult Literature

2025-10-03T11:53:37+00:00

Background: The symbolism of nature and flora is a cornerstone of the Russian literary tradition. However, while extensive scholarship exists on this topic within the classical canon, the specific role and function of plant-related vocabulary (phytonyms) in contemporary Russian literature for young adults remain underexplored. This subgenre presents a unique space where traditional motifs intersect with modern adolescent experiences and identities.

Aims: This article aims to investigate the symbolic and narrative functions of phytonyms in a representative corpus of contemporary Russian young adult prose. The study seeks to identify how plant names are employed to construct character, shape atmosphere, and convey thematic concerns relevant to modern youth.

Methods: A qualitative literary analysis was conducted on a selected corpus of post-2000 Russian young adult novels. The methodology combines close reading with a theoretical framework informed by linguistic and semiotic principles. This approach allows for the identification, categorization, and functional interpretation of phytonyms within their specific narrative contexts, drawing on theoretical work regarding literary processes [1], communication [6], and the reflection of reality in prose [3].

Results: The analysis reveals that phytonyms function as complex literary devices far beyond simple setting decoration. They are instrumental in character development, with specific plants consistently linked to protagonist psychology and memory. Furthermore, floristic imagery is frequently used to establish key thematic dichotomies, such as nature versus urban decay, authenticity versus artificiality, and nostalgia versus the future. The findings indicate a deliberate revival and reinterpretation of traditional symbols to articulate contemporary anxieties and aspirations.

Conclusion: Phytonyms are a vital and dynamic semiotic tool in contemporary Russian young adult literature. They serve as a crucial link between the rich national literary heritage and the pressing concerns of a new generation, offering profound insights into themes of identity, environment, and social change.

The Study Of Children’s Spontaneous Speech

2025-10-18T11:36:11+00:00

The study of spontaneous speech is considered one of the most important problems in linguistics today. The main reason for this is the attempts to automate speech. Despite the fact that artificial intelligence systems are currently performing both written and spoken speech, the process of automating human speech is not over. After all, language is a complex system, and automating all its cultural and social aspects is not an easy task. In addition, it is necessary to take into account age aspects in the use of language. The tempo, timbre, and manner of speaking change as a person ages. It is even possible to estimate a person's age through these aspects. The speech of older people has served as the object of many studies. However, the study of children's speech lags behind in this regard. This article discusses the need to study children's speech and when this category of studies began.

Lexical-Semantic Features Of The Epic “Balogardon”

2025-10-22T19:43:55+00:00

This article presents a lexical-semantic analysis of the epic “Balogardon,” recorded from one of the major representatives of Uzbek oral literature, Fozil Yo‘ldosh o‘g‘li. It elucidates the semantic layers of the words and expressions used in the work and their role in conveying the people’s worldview and values. The epic’s lexicon features ancient Turkic words, dialectal units, artistic (stylistic) devices, and an active presence of synonymic and antonymic layers. The diversity of terminological vocabulary also helps enhance the epic’s lexical value. In the epic, semantics serves to highlight the central idea—defending the people, heroism and devotion; to uncover the essence of symbolic images; to reflect the people’s historical and cultural values; to shape the reader’s moral-aesthetic education; and to aid in understanding the historical and cultural context. Furthermore, semantic analysis reveals the richness of the system of images and its organic connection with the people’s mentality. The results of the study contribute to a deeper exploration of the epic’s language and to understanding the spiritual world of the people through linguistic means.

Disfluencies In English And Uzbek Spontaneous Speech: A Comparative Psycholinguistic Analysis Of Filled Pauses, Repetitions, And Self-Repairs

2025-10-29T07:08:08+00:00

Background. Disfluencies (filled pauses, repetitions, self-repairs) provide a real-time window on speech planning and monitoring. Objective. To compare how speech rate (fast vs. slow) relates to disfluency types, positional distribution, and production stages in spontaneous English and Uzbek speech.

Methods. We analyzed ≈100 minutes per language from televised interviews (The Graham Norton Show; Darakchi.uz), ≈10 speakers per language (≥18 y.o.). Disfluencies were coded by type (filled pause, repetition, self-repair), position (initial/medial/final), and stage (conceptual planning, formulation/encoding, articulation, self-monitoring). A pause threshold of ≥200 ms was used; speech rate buckets (fast/slow) were assigned from observed WPM.

Results. English: 78 filled pauses, 36 repetitions, 3 self-repairs. Uzbek: 151 filled pauses, 13 repetitions, 7 self-repairs. Fast speakers produced more errors but fewer fillers; slow speakers produced fewer errors but more fillers. Disfluencies clustered utterance-medially in both languages. Gender patterns showed small asymmetries (e.g., more exchanges/perseverations among Uzbek males).

Conclusion. Disfluency profiles co-vary with speech rate and sociolinguistic style, reflecting universal psycholinguistic mechanisms modulated by community-specific communicative practices.

Formal Structure Of Uzbekistan Medical Terms

2025-10-18T03:27:55+00:00

In modern society, scientific and technological progress contributes to the constant development and activation of information exchange on an international scale. This leads to the strengthening of relations through languages. The development of interlingual relations directly depends on the level of communication between speakers of these languages. These processes, especially for types of science and technology that are common throughout the world, cause a specific feature in the development of the languages of these fields: the terminology of the field is not genetically and structurally completely characteristic of the national language, but develops, reflecting its elements. As a clear proof of this idea, what we are studying is that the formal and structural features of medical terminology have a linguistic specificity that requires separate study.

The Influence OF Turkisms ON THE Imagery OF THE Russian Language: The 'Metaphorical Density' Model

2025-10-25T21:08:35+00:00

Turkisms have significantly influenced the Russian lexicon, traditionally being studied from the perspective of chronology and the semantics of lexical borrowings. This article proposes a novel approach to assessing the integration of Turkisms that moves beyond mere frequency (active/passive vocabulary). We introduce the concept of “Metaphorical Density” (MD)—a metric that defines a Turkism's ability to generate new, figurative meanings and become the basis for stable phraseological units (PUs), metaphors, and idioms.

Comparative analysis reveals both shared and language-specific patterns, contributing to typological classification, historical linguistics, and computational applications. Future research should incorporate computational corpus analysis for more precise description of morphonological processes.

Challenges In Translating Historical And Political Narratives: Language, Style, And Period Authenticity

2025-10-14T05:41:14+00:00

This article examines the linguistic, stylistic, and cultural challenges involved in translating historical and political narratives, with particular reference to Lee Kuan Yew’s From Third World to First: The Singapore Story (1965–2000). Using a qualitative descriptive and comparative approach, the study explores how translators navigate issues of political terminology, rhetorical style, and period authenticity. The analysis identifies three core areas of difficulty: the translation of ideologically charged terms, the reproduction of persuasive rhetorical structures, and the retention of historical context for culturally diverse audiences. English–Russian examples illustrate how dynamic and communicative equivalence can help preserve both meaning and emotional force. The findings underscore the translator’s role as a cultural mediator who must balance fidelity to the source text with accessibility for the target readership. The study concludes that successful translation of historical and political texts requires not only linguistic competence but also historical awareness and intercultural sensitivity.

Lexical And Semantic Peculiarities Of Diplomatic Lexicon Of Modern Persian Language

2025-10-18T03:20:03+00:00

The present article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of lexical and semantic peculiarities of diplomatic lexicon of modern Persian language. Diplomatic vocabulary is considered as a special layer of socio-political language formed under the influence of historical, cultural, religious and political factors. It serves as a tool for expressing the official position of the state in international dialog, diplomatic negotiations, political statements and interstate correspondence.

The author emphasizes the role of borrowed vocabulary, primarily Arabic and French, in the formation of diplomatic vocabulary. Arabic loanwords, which have penetrated the Persian language since Islamization, cover religious, political and administrative terms that have become an integral part of the official style.

The article pays considerable attention to the stylistic characteristics of diplomatic speech. Persian diplomatic vocabulary is characterized by a high level of politeness, the use of stable expressions, complex verb constructions and traditional forms of address. Such elements of speech contribute to the observance of the norms of protocol and create an atmosphere of formality and respect.

An important component is euphemization - the use of soft and veiled expressions instead of direct or potentially conflicting language. Euphemisms allow to smooth out confrontational accents and observe the norms of diplomatic etiquette.

In addition, the role of Latin expressions which are used both in the original and in translation, giving the speech universality and compliance with international standards, is analyzed.

Thus, the Persian diplomatic vocabulary is a multi-layered, formally organized system reflecting both national specifics and global trends in international communication.

Affixation In English And Uzbek Anthroponyms: A Comparative Study

2025-10-12T03:24:16+00:00

This paper examines the mechanisms of affixation in the formation of anthroponyms in English and Uzbek, highlighting their morphological, cultural, and social dimensions. Drawing on a comparative linguistic approach, the study analyzes a corpus of literary and historical examples, including works by William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Abdulla Qodiriy, and Cho‘lpon. The findings demonstrate that English anthroponyms often derive from patronymic and diminutive suffixes such as -son, -s, -kin, and Fitz-, while Uzbek names frequently employ suffixes such as -ov/-ev, -iy, -zoda, -qul, -bek, and -chi to denote lineage, social roles, or religious affiliation. The results also reveal that affixation patterns reflect broader cultural and historical processes: the patriarchal and feudal structures of English society, and the Islamic and Turkic influences in Uzbek naming traditions. Contemporary naming practices show increasing challenges of transliteration and globalization. This study contributes to the field of comparative onomastics by providing a systematic analysis of affixal anthroponymy across two typologically distinct languages.

The Problem Of Translating Phraseological Synonyms From German Into Uzbek

2025-10-28T07:37:54+00:00

Translation is a linguistic, literary, and aesthetic phenomenon — an art of words — and the translator is, by nature, a creative artist. The essence of translation lies in the creative process of recreating a work through the means of another language, which makes it a true art of words. For instance, ballet is also an art form, yet it is not an art of words, since speech plays no role in it. The author’s intention, the idea of the work, and the dancer’s mastery are all expressed through music, movement, and choreography. In the visual arts, the main instrument is color, and the artist’s tool is the brush. Therefore, ballet, painting, musical compositions, sculpture, and similar art forms cannot be “translated” into another language. Translation can only be applied to those forms of art that are based on verbal expression and the power of words to convey thought and emotion.

Fragmentary Composition In 21st-Century Uzbek Prose: New Forms Of Nontraditional Novella Structure

2025-10-30T07:35:04+00:00

This article examines the emergence and consolidation of fragmentary composition as a leading structuring principle in 21st-century Uzbek prose, with special attention to the nontraditional novella (qissa). After the homogenizing aesthetics of late socialist realism and the transitional poetics of the 1990s, Uzbek writers have increasingly embraced mosaic, discontinuous, and hybrid arrangements that challenge linearity and monologic narration. Drawing on narratology (Genette, Bal), chronotope theory (Bakhtin), postmodernist poetics (Hutcheon, McHale), and media-aware approaches to digital textuality (Hayles, Ryan), the study maps how fragmented forms register social change, diasporic mobility, memory work, and the pressures of the platformized public sphere. Methodologically, the article combines close reading with contextual literary history and intermedial analysis, using a corpus of contemporary Uzbek novellas published in print and online venues since 2001. The results show that fragmentariness appears as purposeful architecture rather than mere stylistic ornament: it foregrounds ellipsis and gaps to model the epistemic uncertainty of postsoviet life; deploys multiple, shifting focalizations to represent polyphonic social experience; and integrates paratextual and documentary shards—diary entries, chat logs, news flashes—to negotiate truth claims between fiction and reality. The nontraditional qissa thus operates as a laboratory for re-calibrating narrative time, producing polychronic chronotopes where virtual spaces and embodied places collide, and for re-situating the authorial voice amid citation, retranslation, and intertextual memory. The article concludes by arguing that these compositional experiments have already redefined the Uzbek novella’s genre ecology: they support translation and transnational reception, enrich classroom pedagogy of contemporary literature, and open a durable path for integrating oral tradition and digital culture without forfeiting local specificity.

Somatic Metaphors In The Uzbek And English Languages

2025-10-09T08:14:40+00:00

Somatic metaphors are being studied based on human body. They are widely used in language and culture to express human inner experiences, emotions, thoughts, or behaviors.

The Presentation Of Formulaic Structures In Parallel Texts In English And Uzbek Languages

2025-10-18T03:23:52+00:00

This study investigates the translation strategies employed in rendering formulaic expressions from Uzbek to English within the context of philological dissertation abstracts. Formulaic expressions—multi-word units stored and retrieved as complete entities—play a crucial role in academic discourse by facilitating logical coherence, credibility, and precision in communication. The investigation focuses on the challenges arising from fundamental typological differences between Uzbek (an agglutinative Turkic language) and English (an analytic Indo-European language).

A corpus of 157 formulaic expressions was systematically extracted from dissertation abstracts in the philological sciences and analyzed to identify predominant translation strategies. The findings reveal that adaptive translation—particularly the conversion of active voice constructions to passive voice—emerged as the most frequently employed strategy for achieving functional equivalence across the two languages. This research contributes to understanding interlingual equivalence in academic translation and highlights the importance of formulaic expressions in establishing author credibility and disciplinary membership in scholarly texts.

Linguocultural And Psycholinguistic Aspects Of Teaching Critical Thinking To International Students In The Uzbek Language Environment

Mirzo Abdulqadir Bedil (1644–1720) — a poet, writer, philosopher, and thinker — is highly renowned among the peoples of Central Asia. He laid the foundation for the development of literary and philosophical ideas by drawing upon the thoughts of Sanai, Attar, Jalaluddin Rumi, and Ibn Arabi, as well as the ancient philosophies and literary-philosophical traditions of Iran, Greece, India, and Arabia. Building on the achievements of the past, Bedil firmly established his own philosophical thought.

Bedil's elevation of the status of the human being is rooted in his deep belief in Sufi teachings. He regarded every person as Hazrati Insan (The Noble Human), and believed that if a person continually strives to purify their heart, they will come to comprehend eternal truth and love through the light of insight. In the path toward understanding Absolute Truth, the concept of the Perfect Human holds a central place in his work.

Even today, Bedil’s legacy serves as a spiritual and intellectual guide for young people, and for admirers of literature, science, and wisdom. His work remains a valuable resource for studying the history of spiritual thought, especially in the fields of mysticism, ethics, and aesthetics.
