PRAGMATIC FEATURES OF INTERROGATIVE SENTENCES IN THE UZBEK LANGUAGE

Аннотация

This study explores the pragmatic features of interrogative sentences, focusing on their communicative functions, contextual dependence, and the role of politeness and social norms in shaping meaning. Interrogatives are analyzed not only as grammatical structures but also as tools that convey speaker intentions, manage social interaction, and facilitate effective communication. The research highlights how situational context, discourse history, and cultural conventions influence the interpretation of questions. Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of pragmatic competence in language teaching and intercultural communication. The findings suggest that understanding the pragmatic aspects of interrogatives enhances communicative effectiveness and contributes to both theoretical linguistics and applied language studies.
