PRAGMATIC AND CULTURAL DIMENSIONS OF ENGLISH–UZBEK BUSINESS DISCOURSE
Abstract
This research focuses on the pragmatic and cultural dimensions of English and Uzbek business documents. While English texts reflect clarity and efficiency, Uzbek documents often embody politeness, hierarchy, and detail. The study emphasizes that pragmatic adaptation is as important as semantic equivalence in translation.
