The dream as a narrative and symbolic device in adventure literature
This article explores the role of the dream motif in adventure literature, focusing on Ro‘yo yoxud G‘ulistonga safar by Ahmad A’zam and comparing it with other works such as Gulliver’s Travels, The Land of Sweet Melons, and Alamozon and His Pawns. The study analyzes how dreams serve as a symbolic and narrative tool that shapes the composition, develops the protagonist’s journey, and deepens the philosophical and psychological aspects of the work. Dreams in literature often blur the boundaries between reality and fantasy, allowing authors to reflect on inner experiences, subconscious fears, and societal issues. In Ro‘yo yoxud G‘ulistonga safar, the protagonist’s journey is framed entirely within a dream, making it a key structural and thematic element. Similarly, in Gulliver’s Travels, Gulliver’s dreams reveal his mental state and adaptation to unfamiliar worlds. The symbolic nature of dreams in these adventure narratives serves to highlight moral dilemmas, existential questions, and the protagonist’s struggle for self-awareness. The article also discusses how literary dreams function in different ways—sometimes revealing the hero’s psychology, sometimes shaping the ideological content of the work, and sometimes acting as a divine or supernatural message. The study concludes that dreams are a unique artistic method in adventure literature, merging fantasy, philosophy, and psychological depth to create a richer reading experience.
Theoretical foundations of portrait descriptions in literature
This study investigates the role of portrait descriptions in literature and how they affect character development, thematic depth, and narrative structure. The findings show that portrait descriptions are more than just ornamental elements; they are also important instruments for expressing psychological depth, social rank, and greater narrative significance. Portrait descriptions in works by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Leo Tolstoy, Oscar Wilde, and Charlotte Brontë provide psychological insights, social background, and symbolic representation. The findings lend support to Forster's (1927) idea of "flat" and "round" characters, highlighting the importance of comprehensive portrait descriptions in the creation of rich, multidimensional characters.
Future research could look into the importance of portrait descriptions in contemporary literature and digital storytelling, specifically the interaction of visual and textual aspects.
The role of somatisms in polysemantic phraseological units: a cognitive and cultural feature
Somatisms are phraseological units containing body-related components. They play an important role in the semantic and cognitive development of language. This article studies how somatic components contribute to polysemy, analyzing their metaphorical, emotional, cognitive, and cultural aspects. Using theories from cognitive linguistics, including conceptual metaphor theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980), this study explains how somatisms develop polysemantic meanings in the Uzbek and English languages. The findings show the universal and culturally specific nature of somatic components in polysematic phraseological units (PUs).
Syntactical features of empathy (compassion, rejoice) based on sentence type analysis
This study investigates the syntactical features of empathy, focusing on how different sentence types-declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory-are used to express compassion and rejoice. Empathy, as a fundamental aspect of human communication, is deeply rooted in language, and syntactic structures play a crucial role in shaping its expression. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study analyzed written and spoken texts to identify the syntactical patterns associated with empathetic communication. The findings reveal that declarative sentences are the most common, providing clear and direct expressions of understanding and validation. Interrogative sentences foster emotional engagement by inviting dialogue, while imperative sentences offer practical support and encouragement. Exclamatory sentences, though less frequent, amplify emotions, making them ideal for moments of shared joy or admiration. The results highlight the importance of syntactic structures in empathetic communication and suggest that speakers and writers can strategically use different sentence types to enhance the emotional impact of their messages. This study contributes to the growing body of research on the relationship between language and emotion, offering valuable insights into how syntactic features shape our emotional connections with others. Future research could explore cross-cultural differences in empathetic language or investigate how these syntactical features are used in digital communication.

Functional-semantic and linguocognitive features of habitual structures
The study of habitual structures within language involves understanding how habitual actions or states are expressed and interpreted across different linguistic systems. Habitual structures are linguistic constructions used to describe actions or situations that occur regularly or typically. These structures are a significant aspect of human cognition, as they help represent routine activities, customs, and recurring events. The analysis of habitual structures within the framework of cognitive linguistics and functional semantics provides a deep insight into how habituality is conceptually organized and conveyed in language. This article explores the functional-semantic and linguocognitive features of habitual structures, focusing on their role in grammar, meaning, and cognition. Through an examination of habitual constructions, we aim to shed light on their linguistic functions, cognitive representations, and the various ways languages encode habituality.

Study of polysemy and polyfunctionality in terminology
This thesis analyzes the linguistic features of the phenomenon of polyfunctionality and polysemy the opinions expressed by linguists to it. It is known that the feature of polyfunctionality of language units has been known to linguists since the beginning. But in different linguistic paradigms, the linguistic approach to this phenomenon is different. In traditional linguistics, the important role of polyfunctionalism in linguistic units has always been recognized. In the system-structuralist direction, however, the ambiguity of the word is ignored as an irritating condition. Because of this, the always present polyfunctionalism in the language has produced ambiguous opinions among linguists. The thesis focused on the analysis of these diverse theories.
Comparative analysis of structural principles in multilingual dictionaries
This study investigates the structural principles of eight multilingual dictionaries encompassing English, Uzbek, and Russian, spanning domains such as anatomy, chemistry, economics, mathematics, computer science, taxation, spirituality, and general usage. The aim is to compare their organizational strategies, entry formats, and supplementary features to assess their effectiveness in meeting the needs of diverse target audiences, including students, professionals, and language learners.
A comparative analysis was conducted on the dictionaries’ structural elements, including entry arrangement (alphabetical order, starting language, directionality), semantic depth (explanatory notes, synonyms, examples), grammatical and phonetic information, and supplementary features (e.g., tables, guides). The dictionaries were evaluated based on their accessibility, usability, and domain-specific utility, drawing from examples and structural patterns observed in each work.
Findings reveal that all dictionaries adopt alphabetical ordering, but their starting languages and directionality vary, reflecting intended users—e.g., bidirectional structures (A. Qosimov & M. Qosimova) enhance versatility, while unidirectional English-first designs (M. Shokirova & Sh. Nurullayev) prioritize scientific audiences. Semantic depth differs, with detailed annotations in anatomy and chemistry dictionaries aiding learners, contrasted by concise, practical entries in taxation and economics dictionaries. Grammatical markers and phonetic transcription are inconsistently provided, with most lacking pronunciation guides, limiting accessibility for non-native speakers. Supplementary features like periodic tables or abbreviation lists enhance usability in some cases.
The dictionaries’ structures align with their specialized purposes, balancing accessibility and depth. However, the widespread absence of phonetic transcription and inconsistent grammatical detail hinder their effectiveness for language learners. Future editions could integrate these elements to improve utility across diverse audiences.
