ABSTRACT

In this article, recommendations are given for situations related to the assignment of linguistic expertise to

defamatory materials. As society develops, protection of its life, honor and dignity is becoming a priority issue. Of

course, taking into account that practical research of the social importance of language, in particular, determining the

discrediting of a person, evaluating such features in words, phrases and sentences is considered an urgent issue, some

recommendations are given to provide a solution in this regard.

INTRODUCTION

Language is such an important tool in human life that

one cannot imagine life without it. The participation of

language has special importance in terms of dealing

between humans and the world and everything in it.

This can be clearly observed, especially in interactions

between people. Of course, it is a natural phenomenon

that various conflicts and misunderstandings occur in

such relationships. The issue we are researching is to

achieve a solution to such problematic situations and

their controversial issues related to language as much

as possible. There is an article in the Criminal Code of

the Republic of Uzbekistan: "Article 140. Insult

MAIN PART. Insulting, namely intentionally insulting

the honor and dignity of a person with indecency, if it

is committed after the application of administrative

punishment for such actions, -

shall be punished with a fine of up to two hundred

times the amount of the base calculation or

compulsory community service for up to two hundred

and forty hours or correctional work for up to one year.

Defamation by publishing or in another way, including

in the mass media, telecommunications networks or

the Internet global information network -

shall be punished by a fine in the amount of two

hundred to four hundred times the amount of the base

calculation, or two hundred and forty to three hundred

hours of compulsory community service, or one to two

years of correctional work.

Insult:

a) in connection with the performance of the victim's

service or civic duty;

b) if it was committed by a dangerous recidivist or by a

person previously convicted of defamation, -

shall be punished by a fine in the amount of four

hundred to six hundred times the amount of the base

calculation, or correctional work from two to three

years, or restriction of freedom for one year." [3].

Laws define what can be done, what can't be done,

and in general permits and prohibitions. It is stated

above that it is impossible to insult a person and that

certain punishment is inevitable for him. However,

there are no clear limits on whether a word, speech, or

action is insulting. This is a task performed by

specialists who have special linguistic knowledge.

Insult is an intentional humiliation of a person's honor

and dignity, expressed in an indecent manner. Insults

(verbal, written) or actions (spitting, inappropriate

gestures (inappropriate gestures are actions that are

considered as insults among people, for example, by

pointing the index finger on the side of the forehead to

show that person is mentally retarded pointing can

also be done in the form of gestures of a person's

genitals and sexual intimacy through fingers. In the

explanatory dictionary of the Uzbek language, "Insult

[a. - inferiority, vileness, baseness; condescension;

insult]

and personality. Tulkinjon immediately noticed this,

covered his eyes and swallowed the insult that was

about to come out of his mouth. F. Musajon, Khuri.

brother's face. S. Yunusov, Unexpected treasure. 2.

the harshest, most terrible insult he could, namely,

words seemed insulting. S. Yunusov, Unexpected

Treasure. Gulamjon looked at the bread on the table

and felt disappointed. Even though this was an insult

to his pure intentions, Matkovul felt sorry for the poor

man, thinking that people are ready to give what they

have for enlightenment. M. Ismaili, Fergana t. o. Due to

the fact that our petty governors could not unite, we

could not withstand the attack of the invader with

great power, our wives and daughters were taken

away. Is there anything more insulting than that,

Architect?! Mirmukhsin, Architect.” [2, 186].

"Insulting is exactly insult. You insulted them as

"meshchan". A. Mukhtar, Birth. Yes, let your tongues

that blaspheme me be cut off! D. Nuri, Pillar of the Sky.

A person who gets angry in an argument, shouts,

insults the other side always loses. F. Musajonov,

Himmat."

"Curse II 1 To fight with bad words, to insult. - Yes,

dishonest, yes dog! - Karatoy started cursing the rich

man. - Dirty crow! Oybek, Selected works. I'm hungry! I

am naked! Poor! You curse him, you curse him, and

that's how you insulted him. M. Ismaili, Fergana t. o

.”

[2, 186]. Although it is mentioned what an insult is in

the explanatory dictionary of the Uzbek language, the

meaning of insulting words is not clarified. Take, for

example, the word turshak. "Turshak is a dried apricot"

in EDUL. To dry apricot. Zebi-Khan served bread and

turshak on a tray and put them in front of them [the

guests]. S. Ahmed, Horizon. The communicator was

also sitting, turshak was in his mouth, biting a stone

and eating its kernel. M. Mukhamedov, After Hero.

Turshak water. A drink made by boiling turshak in

water. In one corner of Outing, kvass sellers, turshak

water sellers, and swindlers are deceiving young

children's money. M. Mukhammadjanov, Marriage

Attempts. He got up and drank two or three spoonfuls

of the water from the cup. From the newspaper." and

this is used in the sense of insulting a person in the

territory of Tashkent city. That is, in the sense that it

looks wrinkled, it is broken, it is very small, it is broken.

Such problematic and controversial issues are solved

by creating special dictionaries of "Insulting words,

expressions, proverbs, and signs".

The use of profanity is condemned by the public mind

from a moral and ethical point of view, but it would be

a mistake to say that these units are absolutely

forbidden. For example, there are situations in which

the public mind may justify their use (including in

humorous situations among friends, for the creator to

describe a character in a fictional text, for punning

purposes, for humorous purposes, and other such

situations).

Protection of immovable property of a person - honor,

dignity and business reputation is protected by law,

and certain punishment is imposed when untruthful,

insulting or slanderous information about a person is

disseminated, action will be taken with the type. [3,

175]. In order to open a claim for the protection of

honor and dignity and professional reputation,

information must be disseminated in an untrue and

defamatory manner. If there are no such signs in the

information considered insulting, it means that there is

no civil offense, and the claim in this category of cases

will not be satisfied. Distribution occurs when it

becomes known to at least one person other than the

claimant (the person to whom something is confirmed

or denied in this information), that is, when the

information reaches the claimant personally. If a citizen

claims to have violated the current legislation or moral

standards, the principles of behavior established in

society, a special examination shall be carried out.

Disseminated information should reflect events and

facts, that is, it should have a form that can be proven

or disproved (text, video, audio recordings, various

signs, or impartial witnesses). In this regard, if the

information disseminated is not of an evaluative

nature, the claim for protection of honor will not be

satisfied. The dissemination of opinions about value is

recognized as the implementation of the constitutional

principle of freedom of speech, opinion, and belief; the

distribution of value judgments is not recognized as an

invasion of the intangible interests of individuals. The

inspection is mainly carried out in the following stages:

1. The procedure for determining the truth of a

statement based on experimental (empirical) data. For

example, you can check the message "Illegitimate

money has been embezzled from the account of the

organization." Only a statement of facts can be verified

as true, and evidence that cannot be verified that we

have an opinion or assessment (He is a bad worker).

2. The expert's conclusion can be further confirmed by

experimental methods (for example, a psycholinguistic

experiment, a survey, a questionnaire). There are two

approaches to solving defamatory statements. For

example, when it is claimed that a person is insulting,

such as "thief, corruptor, bribe taker, whore, raider", it

is resolved by special investigations, looking for

evidence, "comparing a person to a certain animal

(deer, cat, fish, lamb (for Uzbeks) other than similes

that mean praise or caress) "cattle, animal, donkey,

dog, puppy (in Uzbeks, pig is also an insult, in Russians,

pig is a petting word) "Monkey, ox, snake, lizard,

scorpion, frog, turtle, rat" is an insult, it will be possible

to determine that it is an insult through the

"Explanatory Dictionary of Insults". It is also important

to note here that expressions considered as insults are

not always insults. Such cases can also be caused by

regional characteristics. That is, a word or expression

that is considered an insult in a certain region may be a

word used in everyday life in another region. For

example, in the Tashkent region, "whore" is just a

parasitic word that has stuck on the tongue. "Drink it,

drink it, whore!" Zaynab bit her back... Otabek threw

the cup at her... Zaynab's clothes were covered with

soup. Then Yusufbek appeared from the hall. "Go

Of all the actions demeaning the honor and dignity of a

person, only those expressed in an unacceptable form

are subject to administrative responsibility. This does

not exclude the responsibility for humiliating a

person's honor and dignity. It is appropriate to use

euphemistic terms such as "bribery leader", "abuse of

authority", "prostitute", "selling one's div" for

persons caught committing a certain crime in society.

Although the opposite cases are not insults (if the guilt

is confirmed, it is discrimination), it is a correct and

acceptable approach from the point of view of

nationalism and universality, taking into account the

beautiful upbringing of the young generation in the

openness of information.

If the information in the main examination is not clear

enough, if there are questions about the completeness

of the study, if all the proposed materials have not

been studied, etc., an additional examination is

appointed.

An additional expert opinion is appointed to determine

the results of the main expert opinion, as well as when

new questions arise regarding the previously studied

circumstances of the case if it is not possible to obtain

such explanations during the questioning of the

expert. Additional expertise may be assigned to the

same expert (a commission of experts) or another

expert (commission of experts).

Interrogation of an expert is an additional question of

an expert in connection with the expertise conducted

by him and can be done by the inquirer.

Disseminated information should reflect events and

facts, that is, it should have a form that can be proven
