ABOUT THE WORDS ADOPTED FROM THE FRENCH LANGUAGE INTO THE UZBEK LANGUAGE

Pronunciation of words derived from foreign languages. First of all, it should be mentioned that words borrowed from Uzbek to another languages, such as Russian, Arabic or Persian, do not have their original Uzbek pronunciation, but their pronunciations are adapted to the pronunciation standarts of those languages. For example, the Uzbek words, “oqsaqol”, “qarovul”, “tog'a” are pronounced in Tajik as “aksaqol”, “karovul”, “tago”, or the Uzbek words “tanga”, “qishloq”, “o'rik” are pronounced as “dengi”, “kishlak”, “uryuk” in Russian. Signs of becoming dependent on the pronunciation norms of other languages, in particular, English, is appearing without getting rid of the dominance of the Russian pronunciation in our mother tongue established in the Soviet era.
