Keywords:
Emotional speech acts, pragmatics, English and Uzbek languages, expressive acts, cross-cultural communication, speech act theory, emotional expression.Abstract
The article deals with the analysis of semantic and pragmatic features of emotional speech acts in English and Uzbek dialogues. The research exemplifies the expressive acts of praise, criticism, gratitude, and apology, and views these acts as the main means of the interpersonal communication. Following these authors’ ideas: J. L. Austin, J. R. Searle, the study accentuates the illocutionary force of emotional statements and their reliance on the cultural and situational factors. The English dialogues show the use of the indirect and polite strategies to express emotions, which is typical of the individualistic and formal culture, while the Uzbek speech is characterized by the emotional openness, collectivist values, and use of the respectful address forms. Comparative analysis of the data reveals a number of universal features as well as culture-specific ones of emotional communication. The results provide the basis for the cross-cultural pragmatics development and can be instrumental in translation studies, intercultural communication, and foreign language teaching.
