GENDER VOCABULARY AND TERMS: A COMPARATIVE ASPECT
Abstract
The clarification of the features of gender linguistics, which is part of linguistic, ethnolinguistic, psycholinguistic, pragmalinguistic and linguistic relations between different languages in developed countries is essntial. The study aims to study the semantic and linguistic-statistical features of gender vocabulary in English, Russian and Uzbek languages. It states that tracing changes in language and speech provides insight into male and female roles and tasks in particular societies. The end of the XX and beginning of the XXI centuries is considered to be the era of the disappearance of a number of differences between male and female speech. It was found that masculinity and femininity in human social activity in some professions do not essentially differ in gender characteristics, which indicates the emergence and formation of general gender speech and professional activities. “Dictionary of Gender Terms” edited by A.A. Denisova was reviewed based on a scientific-analytical approach to gender characteristics in English, Russian, and Uzbek languages, and the analysis of this dictionary made it possible to identify similarities and differences between gender terms and gender vocabulary.
