Аннотация

This study explores the main lexical-semantic units in political discourse, focusing on a comparative analysis of Uzbek and English media. It examines how specific lexical choices, phrases, and expressions in both languages function as tools for constructing political narratives, influencing public opinion, and reinforcing ideologies. The study investigates the role of language in shaping political messages and how cultural, historical, and social contexts affect the way political discourse is communicated. By analyzing the use of lexical-semantic units in both Uzbek and English political media, the study provides insights into both universal and culture-specific aspects of political communication. The research also highlights the similarities and differences in political discourse across these two distinct linguistic traditions, aiming to enhance the understanding of language's role in political processes.
