PRAGMATIC FUNCTIONS OF LINGUISTIC MEANS IN A TEXT
Main Article Content
Abstract:
This article examines the pragmatic functions of linguistic elements in a text, highlighting their significance in communication, interpretation, and the generation of meaning beyond the literal content. This paper examines linguistic choices within contextual frameworks, utilizing classical and contemporary pragmatics theories, including the contributions of H.P. Grice, J.R. Searle, and Uzbek scholars Shakhriyor Safarov and G.T. Makhkamova, to elucidate how these choices serve to realize speaker intentions, elicit particular effects, and shape the responses of readers or listeners. The paper combines theoretical ideas with practical examples from literary and media texts to demonstrate the diverse pragmatic techniques and devices functioning inside discourse.
