LEXICAL-SEMANTIC AND FUNCTIONAL FEATURES OF RELIGIOUS LEXIS IN “BABURNAMA”

Abstract

Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur's “Baburnama” is a unique monument of Uzbek literature and linguistics. This article provides a detailed analysis of the lexico-semantic features and functional usage of religious terms such as “xudo”, “alloh”, “payg‘ambar”, “masjid”, “namoz”, “ro‘za”, “Qur’on” and “hadis” in the work. The religious lexicon is mainly borrowed from Arabic and Persian languages and is used in historical events, personal experiences, cultural and political contexts. The study employs lexico-semantic methods, including component analysis and contextual analysis. The results demonstrate the semantic expansion, metaphorical usage, and narrative functions of religious vocabulary.
