Euphemisms used in “Hamsat ul- mutahayyirin” By Alisher Navoi
Abstract
AbstractThis article highlights the terms dealing with the death of Jomiy in “Khamsat ul- mutahayyirin” by Alisher Navoi by euphemistic units. For example, a) terms dealing with a man's death; b) the process of placing a corpse in a tomb; c) a ceremony held after burying a corpse. The article was investigated in a diachronic aspect by historical-etymological, linguistic point of view. Social-political lexis is a changeable part of a vocabulary content which reflexes an event of social-political character by the aspect of usage, stylistic feature and origin. Due to the comments given by Navoi, there was a sign of a disease under the influence of autumn weather in the body of Hazrati Nuran (one of the nicknames of Jomiy) and in a day the patient had to stay in bed. Getting to know about this, Navoi got information about his health from time to time.
