Abstract

The focus of this scientific article is on the complexities of translating Uzbek into English, highlighting the significance of linguistic and cultural factors. As a Turkic language spoken in Central Asia, Uzbek presents specific difficulties for translators due to its distinct grammatical structure and cultural subtleties. This article examines linguistic characteristics and cultural contexts, offering illustrative examples to demonstrate effective translation methods. By combining linguistic theories and practical applications, this analysis aims to improve cross-cultural communication.
