COMMUNICATIVE DERIVATIONAL FEATURES OF PARAGRAPH FORMATION (ON THE EXAMPLE OF ENGLISH AND UZBEK LANGUAGES)

Abstract

This article explores the communicative-derivational features of paragraph formation in English and Uzbek. Based on the analysis of authentic texts of various genres, the study reveals differences and similarities in paragraph structure organization, conditioned by the typological characteristics of the languages, as well as cultural and communicative norms. Particular attention is paid to the role of derivational processes (the choice of lexical-grammatical means and syntactic structures) in forming paragraph unity and coherence. The research demonstrates that in English, paragraphs are often formed on the basis of linear progression and explicit linking elements, while in Uzbek, implicit connection based on key word repetition and semantic proximity may prevail. The article also touches upon the influence of genre and functional style on paragraph organization. The findings of this study can be valuable for linguists, methodologists of foreign language teaching, as well as for specialists in the field of intercultural communication.
