MANIFESTATION OF SPEECH ACT TYPES IN UZBEK MEDIA DISCOURSE

This study explores the manifestation of speech act types in Uzbek media discourse, focusing on how language functions to inform, persuade, and engage audiences. It examines assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations in newspapers, television programs, and digital platforms. The research highlights how these speech acts are realized, combined, and influenced by cultural and social contexts. Findings indicate that media language not only conveys information but also performs social actions, shapes public attitudes, and strengthens audience engagement. The study contributes to the understanding of pragmatics in the Uzbek language and offers insights for improving media literacy and journalistic communication strategies.
