ABSTRACT
This article talks about how gender emerges in the process of non-verbal communication. During the research, the
differences between men and women in communication through div language, facial expressions, gestures and
haptics are analyzed. The article examines gender stereotypes and their impact on nonverbal communication styles,
as well as how these differences manifest in different cultures. The results reveal specific differences between men's
and women's nonverbal signals and show how understanding these differences is important for improving
communication effectiveness. The article also provides recommendations aimed at analyzing the relationship
between gender and nonverbal communication in a broader context.
KEYWORDS
Gender linguistics, non-verbal tools, gender linguistics, gender differences, paralinguistic tools, facial expressions and
gestures.
INTRODUCTION
Gender linguistics studies the differences between
adult speech, adolescent speech, children's speech,
female and male speech, boys' and girls' speech, and
gender relations in works of art. These studies also
consider differences in social roles, activity patterns,
behaviors, and psychological characteristics of
individuals. Issues such as the timing of men and
women, their manner of speaking, differences in
language and culture, as well as the influence of
gendered words on language are among the main
topics of gender linguistics.
In the Uzbek language, like all languages in the world,
thoughts are expressed not only linguistically, but also
with the help of non-linguistic (extralinguistic or

paralinguistic) means - gestures and implicit
(inseparable) sounds.
Emergence of gender in non-verbal communication
1. A person uses gestures (non-verbal means) that are
close to language based on the situation and
circumstances to express certain information briefly
and succinctly, to increase the emotionality and
effectiveness of the thought.
2. Gender differences can also be observed in non-
verbal means that supplement speech. Therefore, it is
necessary to study non-verbal means from the
extralinguistic basis from the perspective of gender
linguistics. Because men and women have their own
facial expressions and gestures. Professor S. Mominov
classifies non-verbal means that are not typical for
Uzbek male and female communicators as follows.
As non-verbal tools that are not typical for Uzbek male
communicators
the following can be shown (typicality is assumed in
the classification):
- frowning and frowning;
- flirting
- to cover the mouth for no reason;
- twisting the lips in the sense of surprise, ignorance,
contempt;
- biting the tongue and shaking the head in the sense
of pity;
- kissing (especially with people of the same sex);
- touching the silence to the lips, looking shyly and
looking at the ground;
- putting the index finger on the chin and thinking;
- jerking to the right or left and tilting the head while
talking
bending down and complaining to the interlocutor;
- talking to the communicant standing very close
(shorter than 50-60 centimeters);
As non-verbal tools that are not typical for Uzbek
female communicators
the following can be shown:
- talking (listening) while looking straight at the
communicant's face;
- to speak with the hand like a saw (pakhsa);
- clicking on the throat as a sign of drinking;
- shaking, waving, squeezing, pulling the hand... asking;
- laugh out loud "ho-ho";
- turning the thumb back and pointing to the breast in
the sense of "I";
- beating the chest as "friend" as an expression of love.
The mental and emotional state and inner experiences
of men and women are manifested through different
situations. Usually, women have strong emotionality,
they are quick to emotions compared to men, and we
can observe depression in men compared to women.
These characteristics come to the surface through non-
verbal means. Because men and women have their
own individual actions, gestures and facial expressions.
"Otabek shook involuntarily. There was a change in his
face and a change in his div. (A. Qadiri) "Sister Star
looked at the ground. When her daughter brought the
spoons, she wiped her eyes with the end of her

handkerchief and went back to the kitchen. (U.
Hamdam) In both examples, the mental and emotional
state is expressed. In such cases, the internal changes
in a person are manifested in different ways in women
and men. Mimic movements related to the lips and
eyebrows - twisting the lips, pouting the lips, biting the
lips, furrowing the eyebrows are more characteristic of
women. "Who are you?" Why did you insult the old
man? Go apologize! "Wow, wow..." the young man
pursed his lips. (G. Hotamov)
"Nasima flirted and started playing around. Sometimes
he looked at the teacher, sometimes at Mahvash,
raising his eyebrows. (T. Ashurov)
Facial expressions expressing anger and rage can be
observed more in men. "Sufi stood in front of the door
until they entered the house." (Shepherd)
Gender identity in non-verbal means should be taken
into account not only individual actions, gestures and
facial expressions of men and women, but also
national gestures. Non-verbal means of a national
nature are listed as signs used in the communication of
a certain nation, nation or people, and are
characterized by the limited scope of their use. Such
non-verbal means emdiv national characteristics, are
associated with customs, rituals and manners. German
Vambery, a famous orientalist, knew not only the
Arabic, Persian, and Uzbek languages, but also the
culture and traditions of these peoples. From his
behavior and words, it is not at all noticeable that he is
a foreigner. As a connoisseur of the history and culture
of the eastern nations of Islam, he gains respect and
attention among the population. But in one sitting, he
was moved by a very pleasant music and involuntarily
began to shake his leg to the beat of the tune. This act
reveals to the people that he is European. Because
among the peoples of the East, the sign of enjoyment
of music and singing was expressed not by the
movement of the feet, but by the gradual swaying of
the head in a horizontal position. In fact, nodding and
shaking feet have different meanings in different
nations. "Write a letter," said my father. I nodded and
went out." (O'. Umarbekov)
In the passage above, the construction of a head nod
reflects a gesture that expresses the meaning of
approval and approval, common among the Uzbek
people. If the above text is literally translated into
Bulgarian, it means not to write a letter. Because in
Bulgarians, the above gesture means negation. In
Uzbeks, the vertical movement of the head represents
affirmation, and the horizontal movement represents
negation. In Bulgarians, confirmation is expressed by a
horizontal movement of the head (shaking), and in the
case of negation, it is expressed by throwing the head
back (moving away from the interlocutor, withdrawing
oneself from the known thing, object, events). This
expression of negation is also observed in Arabs. The
third form of expressing negation and affirmation can
be found in Southern Italy, Athenian Greeks and
Neopalitans, Calabrians. In it, confirmation is
expressed by moving the head forward, negation by
throwing it back.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, it should be noted that in the lexical
representation of verbal and non-verbal means, their
characteristic of "women" and "men" is clearly visible.
Feminine units are pronounced "softer" and masculine
units are pronounced "rougher". In the direction of
gender linguistics, the phenomena taken as the object
of research become general for the phenomena and
types in all departments of the language and are useful
in their systematic research.
