Abstract: -
Social networks, their emergence, types and significance are a process that has been studied by
scientists for several years. When we take a scientific approach to the connection of social networks with other
areas and their practical significance, we witness that they are of great importance for all areas. An approach to
social networks from the point of view of applied linguistics is of great importance.
The Internet is a social creation rather than a technical creation. Indeed, despite the amazing results and the visual
shelter of the screen presentation, what is very clear when dealing with any of the functions of the Internet is its
linguistic character. If the Internet is a revolution, then it can be a linguistic revolution. [1:10]. When using the
Internet, social networks, people use linguistic and paralinguistic units as the main means of communication.
Language is a product of thought, a means of socio-spiritual communication. Therefore, social networks are not a
technical innovation, but a social innovation, as D. Crystal noted, if there is a revolution, then it is not a technical,
but a social revolution.

Introduction: -
Social networks are a developing
phenomenon in modern times. Social networks are a
communicative social phenomenon, and at the same
time they are increasingly fulfilling the task of forming
the social, political, economic consciousness, cultural
and ideological worldview of young people. Since social
networks are considered the main source of
communication between people, a society that has
studied and adapted their structure and linguistic
features will continue to develop rapidly.
METHOD AND METHODOLOGY
A practical approach to social networks brings together
representatives of different fields in theoretical and
practical research activities. Professor ND Golev
emphasizes that when studying social networks ideally,
the following aspects should be paid attention to:
1) Social networks are a new communication
phenomenon and a philosophical aspect that presents
a new phenomenon that forms the public
consciousness that shapes it; a person in social
networks is a new type of person, a new morality, a
new culture, a new psychology and biology; the digital
eternity of man;
2) Cognitive aspect: electronic and biological brain; the
problem of isomorphism in the structure and
functioning of social networks and neural networks;
3) Socio-political aspect: social typology and portraits
of social network participants; social networks as a
reflection of the social stratification of society: the
problem of communication of generational strata of
society: the youth stratum as an object of systematic
study;
4) Psychological aspect: psychological typology and
portraits of social network participants; social networks
as a factor in the formation of psychological
relationships; the problem of "Internet addiction" of
children, adolescents and young people to social
networks;
5) Legal aspect: social networks as an environment and
tool for crimes; a tool for combating crimes;
6) Media-communicative aspect: the role of social
networks in the media space of modern society,
transnational and national media communication
trends;

7) Pedagogical aspect: social networks - a friend or
enemy of the Russian school, parents and society;
forming a culture of communication in social networks;
using social networks in the educational process;
8) Linguistic aspect. [2:6]
In his monograph, ND Golev outlines eight aspects of
the approach to social networks, evaluating the
linguistic aspect as a topical research topic, and
approaches each approach based on the capabilities of
the Russian language. In particular, he calls the
pedagogical aspect the Russian school. Based on the
ideas of Golev and other scholars, with some additions,
we have developed the ideal aspects of social networks
in the Uzbek language:
1) Communicative aspect; It is a source of exchange of
ideas between people. The communicative aspect can
also be divided into several branches:
- Communication is not distance-sensitive;
- Establishing communication with people who share
your worldview;
- Finding a profession;
- Digital immortalization of people;
- Stay informed about events happening around the
world;
- Enriching worldview, thought, and thinking;
Research Results
In addition to social networks, Web 2.0 resources
also participate in the process of online communication
between people. Social bookmarks - allow you to share
bookmarks or lists of websites with others (Delicious,
Pinterest); social directories - are focused on academic
purposes (Academic Search Premier, LexisNexis,
Academic University, CiteULike, Connotea); social
libraries - allow you to leave links ( discogs.com ,
IMDb.com ); social media repositories - allow you to
store media files; specialized social networks - unite
people according to certain criteria (for example, age,
gender, religion, certain hobbies, etc.).
Professional social networks are created to
communicate on professional topics, exchange
experience and information, search for and offer
vacancies, and develop business contacts. For example:
LinkedIn, Moy Krug, Professionali.ru . [3]
Corporate social networks solve the problems of
organizing and supporting company activities [4/5]
2) Cognitive aspect (the word cognitive is derived from
the English (Latin) word “cognize”, which means to
know, understand, comprehend and think, or
“cognition”
- to know, to understand. In itself, the
activity of cognition is a phenomenon related to a
person's direct perception and feeling of reality. [6]
As a cognitive aspect of social networks, Golev
touched upon the problem of isomorphism (union of
similar aspects) of social networks and neural
networks. We will touch upon the isomorphism of both
networks, as well as the negative and positive effects of
social networks on neural networks. The popularity of
social networks, while serving to form or develop the
cognitive aspect of people, also serves to negatively
affect them. Below we will touch upon the negative
aspects of social networks:
- The ready-made information on social networks
prevents people from thinking too much, which leads
to a decrease in thinking skills and addiction to social
networks;
- Short content (stories, tweets, posts) and videos on
social networks have led people to use short-term
memory and avoid long-term processes, resulting in
various disagreements due to a lack of emotional
stability in communication between people;
- The abundance of information on social media leads
people to rely on public opinion rather than make
independent decisions or to forget to sort and separate
information, resulting in a superficial approach to
information, fragmentation of opinions, and difficulties
in synthesizing ideas;
There are also positive aspects to the cognitive aspect
of social networks:
- Development of worldview as a result of using a large
and diverse database, expansion of the database;
- The ability of people to be in groups that are suitable
for them, based on their worldview;
- Development of consciousness and the ability to enter
global information spaces through rapid access to
information;
- Formation of critical thinking skills;
- Having the opportunity to freely exchange ideas when
going beyond their own boundaries.
3) Socio-political aspect; Social networks have the
characteristics of social and political communication. In
personal correspondence on social networks, it is
possible to see not the person himself, but his
substantive reflection, an image of that person
combined with various exaggerations. When analyzing
communication
between
people
in
online
communication, it is necessary to pay wider attention
to the concept of interpersonal perception. Perception
of individuals through social perception plays an
important role in communication between people.
Social perception is the process of perceiving objects,
social groups and communities. It is one of the

important components of communication. Social
perception also includes forming an idea about the
intentions, thoughts, attitudes of another person.
[7:167]
The effectiveness of communication between
individuals is that people reveal, describe each other
through communication
4) Psychological aspect;
There are several theories to understand the
psychological impact of using social networks.
Cognitive development theory (Piaget, 1952): The
Internet can contribute to the intellectual development
of children through communication and interactive
games. The ability to solve problems in a virtual
environment develops. [8:310]
Hyperconnection theory (Carr, 2010): Excessive use of
the Internet can lead to a decrease in the ability to
concentrate. The continuous flow of information
through the Internet overloads the brain and weakens
cognitive abilities.
-As a result of observing the idealized lifestyle on social
networks, people are becoming dissatisfied with their
own lifestyle and experiencing mental health problems
related to a decrease in self-esteem as a result of
comparison;
- Excessive use can increase stress and anxiety.
- There is a possibility of depression and social isolation
in adolescents.
- Virtual communication can cause a lack of social
experience in real life.
- Teenagers may not feel the need for real
communication with their peers.[9:311]
5) Legal aspect;
6) Media-communicative aspect;
Today, it can be noted that social media is the most
important source of information about people's
feelings, moods, experiences, thoughts and behaviors.
[10:66]
7) Pedagogical aspect;
8) Linguistic aspect;
9) Economic aspect;
10) Archival aspect;
11) Cultural aspect;
12) Geosocial aspect;
Language is a means of communication between
people. In social networks, language serves to convey
information in the form of speech, to influence.
Communication can be carried out not only through
language, but also through additional means to
language, namely gestures and various sounds. In
addition to language units in social networks,
paralinguistic means also serve to establish
communication and relationships between people.
Language is the most important means of
communication of humanity. Communication can also
be established by other means: Morse code, sign
language, etc. For example, the sounds of drums used
to transmit information over long distances in Africa,
and the "Whistle language" used in the Canary Islands
are among them. Other means of communication are
auxiliary, secondary to language. [11:6]
Conclusions
Language does not only convey dry information
from one person to another, but also reflects the
speaker's attitude to this information, his desires and
assessments, and his mental state. [12:6] Therefore,
when analyzing language units, it is possible to obtain
information inherent in the human psyche. In the
process of psychological and linguistic approach to
social media texts, one can observe both positive and
negative aspects:
- Observing ideal images on social media leads to a
state of psycho-emotional disorder in young people,
which leads to low self-esteem and a decrease in their
sense of satisfaction with their lives;
- It is precisely the Instagram social network that
provides videos based on the user's interest. This is very
useful for people with malicious intentions. They use it
effectively to achieve their goals, aimed at changing the
worldview of young people and making fundamental
changes in their mental state;
- Videos on social networks affect the mood of young
people, causing them to experience stress;
Social networks also serve the following functions:
- Crimes related to speech are being committed
through social networks;
- Social networks serve as a media;
- Social networks serve as an educational function not
only for young people, but also for older people;
- A linguistic approach creates the opportunity for
linguistic analysis of social network speech on any
topic;
- Social networks serve as a key tool for business
development;
- Social networks provide a free service for storing and
retrieving information of any kind;
- Correspondence on social networks can be called a
window showing the culture and traditions of each
nation.

All of the above aspects of social networks are revealed
through linguistics, that is, language units and
paralinguistic units. That is why the linguistic aspect can
be called one of the most important aspects.
To summarize, along with the negative aspects of using
social networks, there are many positive aspects. By
forming the skills of using social networks correctly in
young people, it will be possible to use the positive
aspects of social networks and open the door to a wide
range of opportunities:
- Creates the opportunity to use a digital resource base;
- Young people will have the opportunity to develop
their potential in various fields;
- They will have the opportunity to use interactive
educational opportunities;
- They will have the opportunity to learn foreign
languages through virtual communication;
- They will have the opportunity to use world-class
academic information.
