EXPLORING NEOLOGISMS IN YOUTH PRESS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF UZBEK AND ENGLISH
Abstract
This paper delves into the realm of neologisms within youth press discourse, focusing on the languages of Uzbek and English. Neologisms, newly coined words or expressions, often reflect societal changes, technological advancements, and cultural shifts. This study employs a comparative analysis to examine the emergence, usage, and cultural implications of neologisms in youth-oriented media in both languages. Through a systematic review of relevant literature and analysis of contemporary examples, this research sheds light on the dynamic nature of language evolution in the digital age, highlighting the role of youth culture in shaping linguistic innovations.
