ISSUES OF TERMINOLOGY IN THE ACTIVITIES OF THE JADID MOVEMENT

The Jadid movement, which began in Crimea at the beginning of the last century, also spread to Uzbekistan. Influenced by the progressive opinions of the Christian-tatar intellectuals, the heroes of the nation, who wrote their names on the pages of history, grew up. Having visited the countries of Europe, Tatarstan, and Turkey and seeing scientific and technical progress and economic and cultural developments there, they dreamed of building such a society. They realized that the first factor in this was to enlighten the people. To make the nation literate, they took the initiative of reforming education, opening new method schools, reforming the alphabet, which is an obstacle to quick and easy education, and developing national spelling rules. The field for the discussion of the alphabet and spelling was the press. The jadids expressed their opinions and suggestions through the press and at occasional meetings. The alphabet was thus reformed, laying the foundation for the creation of national orthography.One of the major issues was the nationalization of terms (terminology) that had entered or were entering the national literary language. Among the Jadid enlightenment thinkers, there were differing views on this matter. While some had a positive attitude toward the nationalization of terms, others believed that such words should be adopted in their original form. This study analyzes Jadids’s attitudes toward borrowed words and their views on the principles of adopting foreign terms

SIR PAUL NURSE’S GENETICIST’S TALES - CASE STUDY OF A COMPLEX FAMILY TREE NARRATIVE

This study examines the autobiographical narrative of the Nobel Prize-winning geneticist Sir Paul Nurse, to explore the intersection of genetics, identity, and familial secrecy. Employing a structuralist-folkloric framework rooted in Vladimir Propp’s morphology and the Aarne-Thompson-Uther classification, alongside psychoanalytic theories from Carl Jung and Julia Kristeva, the analysis traces Nurse’s journey from perceived familial difference to the revelation of his illegitimacy and concealed maternity. The narrative parallels folktale motifs, such as ATU 926 ("Judgment of Solomon") and ATU  930B ("The Predestined Wife"), while engaging themes of recognition (Aristotle’s anagnorisis), revolt (Kristeva’s self-authorship), and ethical ambiguity (Žižek’s traumatic Real). The findings highlight how personal mythmaking reconciles scientific rationality with archetypal narratives, offering a model for identity reconstruction in empirical paradigms

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FAIRY TALES AND FAIRY TALE WRITERS WITH AN EMPHASIS ON TINA WAJTAWA, THE ‘LITTLE FLOWER’ FROM RESIA

The paper deals with the comparative analysis of the fairy-tale motif of the animal groom/bride, which in H. J. Uther's international index of fairy-tale types is marked with numbers from 400 to 459, or the Beauty and the Beast motif, which is marked with the number ATU 425C. The fairy tale type is known from ancient literature, from Apuleius' tale of Amor and Psyche (2nd century), through many versions of European fairy tales, from the French précieuses of M. De Beaumont (Beauty and the Beast), to the golden age of fairy tales and variants by Dorothea Viehmann (The Singing, Springing Lark, 1815), Laura Gonzenbach (Zafarana, 1870), and the variant by Tina Wajtawa (1900–1984), the fairy tale writer from Resia, entitled Dekle, ki je hotela rožico (The Girl Who Wanted a Flower). The results of the comparative analysis show that the fairy tales are similar and different at the same time. The essential similarity of the variants by the Resia fairy tale writer Tina TinaWajtawa, who told the motif of the animal groom/bride three times (Benjamina, The Girl Who Wanted a Flower and Žabica [The Little Frog]), shows that Tina Wajtawa related to the antiquity and the Romanesque tradition, while at the same time she added specific cultural elements from Rhesia as well as modern elements; in addition to the attribute of beauty, she attributedted the attribute of subjectivization (thinking) to her heroines

CLASSIFICATION OF THE APPELLATIVE LEXICON BASED ON FEMININE AND GIRLS’ NAMES ACCORDING TO LEXICAL-SEMANTIC GROUPS IN UZBEK LANGUAGE

This article discusses the appellative vocabulary (homonyms), which are considered the lexical basis of Uzbek female names, and their classification according to lexical-semantic groups. It also analyzes and classifies the types of lexemes that make up the appellative vocabulary that is the basis for Uzbek female names today. Feminine names are divided into 14 groups according to their lexical basis, and examples of names belonging to the groups are presented and analyzed. The main principle in this is the lexical-semantic group to which the homonymous noun belonged before it became a noun

Teaching Literature with Creative Problem-Solving in the Second Trimester of Elementary School

Taking ethical literary studies (Virk 2017) into account, the article demonstrates that modern ways of teaching literature can already be used in the second trimester of elementary school. These include creative problem-solving (Žbogar 2007, 2013), flipped learning (Žbogar 2023a, 2023b), the method of solving literary problems (Žbogar 2023c), and knowledge about the neuroscience of reading (Pirtošek 2016). We demonstrate that, through contemporary methods of teaching literature, pupils can be encouraged to gain a deeper understanding of the fairy tale, ethical matters, and the competence to compare it with Dostoevsky’s The Begger Boy at Christ’s Christmas Tree by studying Hans Christian Andresen’s The Little Match Girl

THE NEED FOR COMPARABLE CORPORA IN TRANSLATION TEACHING AND LEARNING

The primary objective of this research is to catalyze the scholarly progress of translation teaching and learning within higher education institutions in Albania, specifically in the preparation of students in the field of translation theory and practice. The study aims to contribute significantly to the theory and practice of translation by emphasizing the imperative to develop comparable corpora of English-Albanian texts across diverse text types. Additionally, the research will delve into establishing a typology of translation strategies in Albania. Building upon the pioneering efforts of the researchers in previous work, which involved the translation of English and Albanian texts using linguistic, stylistic, and semantic techniques, this study also pays meticulous attention to the intricate relationship between the translation process and its resulting product. By focusing on the development of comparable corpora, this research presents a valuable opportunity to enhance both the theory and practice of utilizing bilingual corpora in the context of translation teaching, learning, and research. The outcomes of this research endeavor will provide the foundational framework for the future formulation of a streamlined pedagogical typology specifically addressing the use of comparable corpora in teaching and learning translation strategies in the English-Albanian context. This typology, once developed, will further serve as the basis for generating a series of project concepts with the overarching goal of establishing cooperative agreements. These agreements are envisioned to foster collaboration in the future with colleagues from regional and Western universities, as well as with researchers and experts in the field of translation
