CROSS-CULTURAL STYLISTIC VARIATIONS IN ENGLISH–UZBEK LITERARY TRANSLATION
Keywords:
English–Uzbek translation, stylistic variations, cross-cultural communication, literary translation, cultural adaptation, translator’s strategies.Abstract
This article examines the cross–cultural stylistic variations that arise in English–Uzbek literary translation. It focuses on the linguistic, cultural, and aesthetic transformations implemented to preserve the original text’s communicative intent while adapting it to the target cultural context. The study explores differences in metaphorical expressions, idiomatic structures, pragmatic meanings, politeness strategies, and narrative voice. By analyzing selected examples from modern literature, the research highlights the translator’s role in mediating cultural nuances and ensuring equivalence in emotional impact and stylistic effect. The findings demonstrate that translation is not merely a linguistic transfer, but also a cultural negotiation aimed at maintaining artistic authenticity across languages.
