Theoretical foundations of the semantic-pragmatic analysis of phraseological units
Abstract
This article examines the theoretical foundations of the semantic-pragmatic analysis of phraseological units. It explores the semantic components of phraseological meaning, their synonymic and antonymic relationships, and similarities and differences between phraseological units in English and Uzbek. From a pragmatic perspective, the study highlights the contextual meaning, expressive and emotional functions, and the role of phraseological units in modern literary discourse and real-life communication. The article also discusses the significance of phraseological research for language learning, translation, and intercultural communication, suggesting directions for future studies.
