This article explores the essential role of linguocultural features in the translation of literary texts. Translation is not only a linguistic act but also a cultural one, as literature reflects the values, beliefs, and traditions of its original culture. The paper examines how culture-specific elements—such as idioms, humor, metaphors, and historical references—pose challenges in the translation process. It also discusses the major strategies used by translators, including domestication, foreignization, cultural substitution, and calque. By analyzing selected literary works and providing real-world examples, the article highlights the translator’s responsibility to preserve both the meaning and artistic integrity of the original text. The study concludes that literary translation is a creative and intercultural process that requires deep cultural awareness, linguistic skill, and ethical sensitivity.

The rapid evolution of biotechnology as a scientific discipline necessitates a robust and precise terminological system for effective communication. This article investigates the primary etymological pathways and lexical formation processes evident in English biotechnological terminology. Drawing upon various linguistic analyses, we explore the structural and semantic peculiarities of both single-component and multi-component terms, highlighting the significant roles of derivation, compounding, and semantic phenomena such as metaphorization. The study underscores how the interdisciplinary nature of biotechnology influences its linguistic landscape, fostering a dynamic creation of neologisms and the re-purposing of existing lexical units. Understanding these formation mechanisms is crucial for terminology standardization, translation, and enhancing clarity in scientific discourse.

This study explores the linguopragmatic differentiation of children’s speech within Uzbek and English sociocultural contexts. Drawing on cross-cultural discourse data, it examines how gendered speech patterns emerge through familial interactions, educational practices, peer communication, and cultural norms. The findings underscore that gendered speech is not merely a linguistic phenomenon but a socioculturally mediated construct reinforced by discourse and pragmatic conditioning. By integrating frameworks from pragmatics (Grice’s maxims), politeness theory (Brown & Levinson), and gendered communication research (Tannen, Lakoff), this paper identifies patterns of dominance, politeness, and emotional expressivity in boys’ and girls’ speech, revealing the ways linguistic socialization reflects broader societal ideologies.

Coreference resolution plays a crucial role in natural language processing by enabling accurate understanding of a text and identifying its semantic structure. While effective Coreference resolution systems have been developed for resource-rich languages such as English, German, and Chinese, research and practical systems in this area remain insufficient for the Uzbek language. Uzbek differs significantly from other languages due to its agglutinative structure, flexible word order, and rich morphology. These linguistic features necessitate unique approaches and models for Coreference resolution. This article discusses the Uzbek-language Coreference resolution system – UzCoref – highlighting its functional capabilities, system architecture, data flow, underlying model, testing process, comparative analysis with other systems, and the advantages of UzCoref.

The influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on the field of language learning and teaching is no longer a distant prediction—it is now a present reality. In contexts like Uzbekistan, where English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education has become both a national priority and a social necessity, AI technologies are increasingly finding their place in classrooms, teacher training programs, and digital learning platforms. This article explores how AI is reshaping the linguistic, pedagogical, and emotional dimensions of EFL education in Uzbekistan. It reflects on the role of AI not only as a tool but also as a linguistic phenomenon that interacts with the learner’s mind, motivation, and learning strategies. Drawing upon both global research and personal observation, the paper presents a human-centered narrative about opportunities and ethical concerns, innovations and misalignments, hopes and fears—all grounded in the realities of EFL classrooms. Ultimately, this research argues that AI will not replace language teachers but will reshape their roles, requiring a critical, linguistically-informed, and culturally sensitive approach to integration.

The investigation of plant names, or phytonymy, represents a dynamic intersection of linguistics, anthropology, ethnobotany, and cultural studies. This article explores the multifaceted nature of plant name studies across global linguistic traditions, emphasizing the significance of nomenclature in shaping human interaction with flora, encoding ecological knowledge, and reflecting cultural values. Through a comparative analysis of diverse language families and historical contexts, this work uncovers patterns in naming, semantic evolution, borrowing, and cultural symbolism. Special attention is paid to the mechanisms underlying plant name formation, the transmission of botanical knowledge through language, and the challenges of standardization in scientific and folk contexts. The research draws upon both theoretical models and practical examples from various regions, highlighting the value of phytonymy in linguistic typology, translation studies, and cross-cultural communication. The conclusion proposes a framework for further interdisciplinary research and emphasizes the relevance of plant name studies in preserving intangible cultural heritage and supporting biodiversity conservation.

This article examines the linguistic and cultural characteristics of similes in Alisher Navoi’s epic Farhad and Shirin, focusing on the role of quantity etalons. Simile constructions are analyzed from semantic, syntactic, and stylistic perspectives, with emphasis on their sensory-based types (vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch) and the expression of quantity (e.g., “ashkdek,” “bir necha”). Quantity etalons serve to specify volume, number, or degree within similes, enhancing their expressiveness. The study elucidates the interplay between language and culture, underscoring the significance of similes and quantity etalons in linguistic and cultural studies.

Retsker, L.S. Barkhudarov, the paper examines how different approaches define and apply the concepts of equivalence in relation to linguistic norms, functional correspondence, and communicative effect. The analysis highlights the distinction between formal, dynamic, and functional equivalence, and the roles they play in achieving accurate translation outcomes. Special attention is given to the translator’s linguistic and cultural competence and the inherent asymmetry in bilingualism, which significantly affects translation choices. Furthermore, the article discusses translation criticism as a tool for evaluating the quality and equivalence of translated texts.

Tongue twisters represent a distinctive genre of folklore that simultaneously serve as a means of testing phonetic complexity and as an expressive form enriched with cultural and spiritual content. From a phonetic perspective, tongue twisters contribute to the mastery of the sound system and pronunciation norms, while from a lexical-semantic perspective, they reflect the worldview, cultural stereotypes and spiritual values of the people who created them through the use of vivid imagery.

This paper presents a unified structural theory of parts of speech, integrating comparative evidence from English, Uzbek, and Russian. It addresses the longstanding debate on word-class categorization by combining distributional, syntactic, morphological, and semantic criteria into a comprehensive framework. Utilizing descriptive grammars and typological studies, we identify universally communicative "primary" parts of speech common across these languages, alongside "secondary" categories specific to individual linguistic structures. Our analysis emphasizes the importance of clearly distinguishing semantic and formal criteria to avoid theoretical ambiguity. The unified model effectively accounts for cross-linguistic variations, such as differing usage of articles, pronoun case systems, and morphological distinctions, ensuring theoretical coherence.
