EQUIVALENCE PROBLEMS IN TRANSLATING POLITICAL TERMS FROM ENGLISH INTO UZBEK

 This article examines the challenges of achieving equivalence when translating political terms from English into Uzbek. It considers differences between the two countries’ political systems, the influence of context on term meaning, and the difficulties posed by terms that lack established Uzbek equivalents. The article discusses translation strategies such as using an established equivalent, descriptive translation, calque, and borrowing. It argues that an appropriate choice depends on both the term’s meaning in its source context and the conventions of Uzbek political discourse.
