Annotation

This article explores the linguistic features present in the works of the renowned literary figure Tog‘ay Murod, distinguished for his profound narratives and unique style. Through a comprehensive analysis, the study highlights key linguistic elements that define Murod’s writing, offering insight into his literary techniques and contributions to the cultural and artistic landscape.

Keywords: Tog‘ay Murod, literary analysis, linguistic features, narrative style, literary technique.

Introduction

Tog‘ay Murod stands as a prominent figure in modern Uzbek literature, celebrated for his captivating storytelling and innovative narrative approach. His works have long fascinated both readers and critics, prompting scholarly interest in the linguistic elements that form the foundation of his distinctive literary voice. This article examines the recurrent linguistic features within Murod’s works, revealing the craftsmanship behind his style and illuminating the essence of his literary genius.

Murod’s literary corpus spans various genres—from prose to poetic narratives—each crafted with its own linguistic precision. His prose is characterized by rich imagery, metaphorical language, and nuanced character development, all of which create immersive storytelling experiences for the reader. Moreover, his use of symbolism, allegory, and intertextuality adds layers of depth, inviting readers to engage with multiple levels of interpretation.

Linguistic Characteristics in Murod’s Works

Beyond his narrative mastery, Murod’s poetic works demonstrate exceptional linguistic rhythm and lyrical expression. By artistically arranging words and sounds, he captures the essence of emotion and human experience, creating a deep resonance with readers. His exploration of linguistic ambiguity and semantic complexity contributes to an intellectual dimension that encourages readers to reflect on the subtleties of language and meaning.

A systematic approach—combining close reading, stylistic analysis, and comparative research—was employed to examine Murod’s linguistic techniques. Works representing different periods of his creative activity and covering diverse themes were analyzed. Textual fragments were studied for recurring linguistic patterns, rhetorical devices, and stylistic choices, providing a comprehensive understanding of his unique writing style.

One of Murod’s most notable contributions lies in his transformation of the natural speech of ordinary people from the Surkhan region into a literary stylistic device. He was among the first to elevate this regional vernacular to the level of a refined artistic tool. Following in the footsteps of earlier creators, he developed his own perspective on literary style. Researcher M. Khidirova describes language as the foundation of literary structure, noting:

> “A literary work is like a tower. It has its own foundation. The lifespan of the work depends on this foundation. The foundation of a literary work is language. Life begins with language and ends with language.”

Thus, the linguistic worldview of Tog‘ay Murod embodies a philosophical understanding of language as both an artistic and spiritual necessity. His unique stylistic mastery continues to serve as a school of artistic skill for young writers, especially at a time when the Uzbek language is flourishing as a state language and its preservation and development are of great importance.

—

Theoretical Perspectives on Style

Classical and contemporary scholars alike have offered insights into the formation of literary style. The eminent

scholar Abdurauf Fitrat emphasized that as a writer matures artistically, a distinctive style emerges:

> “As a poet or writer rises in artistic mastery, he begins to create a style peculiar to himself. When his imagination, thought, and understanding reach maturity, a unique style naturally appears.”

Literary critic O. Sharafiddinov likewise described style as an all-encompassing phenomenon permeating every aspect of a writer’s work:

> “A writer’s style is like air—we breathe it without noticing its components. Style is the spirit of creativity, the subtle fragrance present in every work.”

Accordingly, Tog‘ay Murod’s reflections on artistic language and style deserve special attention. Language, artistic vision, and literary technique interact harmoniously in his works, shaping an individual and unrepeatable style formed through philosophical perception, cultural identity, and narrative skill.

—

Tog‘ay Murod’s Creative Language

Tog‘ay Murod is widely recognized for his original and vivid prose, which resembles poetic narrative in both rhythm and imagery. Even casual readers familiar with modern Uzbek literature can easily identify his works by their expressive, colorful, and deeply lyrical language. This distinctive quality sets him apart from other writers.

In works such as Otamdan qolgan dalalar (“Fields Left by My Father”) and Bu dunyoda o‘lib bo‘lmaydi (“One Cannot Die in This World”), Murod won the admiration of readers by portraying the sincere and humble people of the Surkhan region—their hardships, aspirations, and inner worlds. His language is deliberately simple, flowing, and deeply rooted in folk expression.

He skillfully incorporates proverbs, idioms, synonyms, archaic words, and dialectal expressions, enriching the artistic imagery of his narrative. Folk speech enhances the authenticity and emotional connection of his works. For example, dialectal words such as baycha, jigit, bova, iyarmoq, angnib yotmoq, and yonashtirmoq vividly illustrate the regional character of his narratives:

> “I told the boys to lie down by the river and keep watch.”

—

Discussion

The linguistic features identified throughout Murod’s works emphasize his innovative approach to storytelling and his profound connection to language as a tool of artistic expression. By blending imagery, metaphor, symbolism, and intertextual references, he creates multilayered narratives that resonate deeply with readers.

Moreover, his linguistic versatility allows him to traverse different genres and thematic landscapes, demonstrating the breadth and depth of his creative vision.

—

Conclusion and Recommendations

In conclusion, the study of Tog‘ay Murod’s linguistic features reveals a writer of exceptional talent and intellectual depth whose works continue to captivate and inspire audiences worldwide. Future research may further explore specific aspects of his linguistic style—such as dialect usage, narrative voice, or linguistic innovation. Comparative analyses with other literary traditions may also offer valuable insights into the evolution of literary language and expression.

Ultimately, the linguistic richness of Tog‘ay Murod’s works serves as a testament to the enduring power of language to illuminate human experience and provoke thought. As readers engage with his texts, they embark on a journey of linguistic discovery, uncovering layers of meaning and developing a deeper appreciation for the art of storytelling.

An Immigrant’s Letter Home: They Say I’m the Problem

Fresh off the boat
Plank splinters sticking in my bottom
Foreign words coating my throat
Accented with spices smuggled in my breath

I am here by mule train and burnt gasoline
Aero plane and broken shoestrings
Paid for everything by commercializing
My entire life into round metal beads
Covered in ghost heads and iconic scenes
I’ve not yet had the chance to see
The way they haunt my pockets

Exchanging, “for an excellent rate,” he says to me
An Uzi armed sentry stamps my history
Of entry in passport holograms
The picture shivers between two sheets of paper
While I wait on a bench to claim a meal voucher waiver
For my wife and two
Because where I come from, that’s just what we do
If there’s enough left over, I might eat too

We spend most of our time here in a whole-way shelter
Rust-stained gate and chain-linked containers
Thankful we’ve earned this destination
Instead of the alternative
Where we can cash out our dream banks for the hopes of better gold
Even though we’re not sure of the accounts we’ve been sold

Everyone here sleeps, eyes clinched into folds
But awake in mind sweat
Soaking in the nightmares of regret
When barreled crabs said, “you all won’t get past”
And, “you’ll never last”
And, “we’ll be seeing you when you come crawling back”

But this was never intended to be a round trip
We have a new home here even though
We’re not aware where exactly here is
Or if it’s built real in stick or brick
But in the hope of the memories
We haven’t started remembering yet

So, I try not to be a burden
At nine o’clock, I walk across the parking lot
To start the job that I’ve created
Washing windshields for tips
And trotting across traffic to get
Another car clean to cover business expenses
Incorporating my skills from an era gone by
Of staying organized
To capitalize my homeland’s handouts
Before they were demoralized

At eleven o’clock, I beat down the tracks
To bus restaurant tables and bust my back
Below minimum wage reimbursement
Where it’s a fact that taxes get held back
In snide murmurs and slant glances
Carving contempt on my appearances
I absorb this as a symbol of respect
As I did before, our towers were wrecked.

At the other eleven o’clock, I slip through the cracks
Of the shelter’s back door slats
And immerse my mind
In language and cultural contexts
Of the people and places I didn’t know existed
In this new condition set

I often wonder why we worried and hesitated
And held our expectations on presidential level aspirations
Instead of holding ourselves as the democratic inspiration
In the nation our ancestors created
We eroded through horror and hatred
Where we poked one another’s eyes
Bled ourselves to death then painted
Our remnants onto dust bound, thin air

At night, I don’t sleep much at all
Remembering what we had before the fall
The collapse of the systems
Freedom and prosperity
Jester dancing in the world’s mockery
Wrapped in tricolor liberty wings

But now, it all seems like a distant dream
I, go sleepless, knowing it isn’t a thing
No more grain waves or sea shines
The Mother of Exiles sank in the shoreline
As another empire lost on its way to find
The cause that made it an envious emblem

Now, they say I’m the problem


Urban Cowboys

this is where we sleep against tonight
paper pallets lining the underpass
tomorrow we follow the sun’s tail
pulling the needle in our compass
towards another city’s concrete stable
wind whisking the stray cat’s mane
from left to right and North to West
without hay filling our bellies
our Coke bottle canteens collect dust
as we close our eyes around headlight fires
resting our feet on empty bed rolls
and wonder, “When will we ever be home?”


With Backs to the Rules

navigating life in a series of legends
meandering across the foreign out there
most people travel by grasping for the rules

some reach to rules to know where to stand
other lean into rules for strength
the greedy want rules to get ahead
the rebels want rules to overthrow

but instead, there are poets
poets travel with their backs to the rules
in an eternal commission
banished outside Plato’s republic

with one foot on the frontier of the knowable
and the other foot hovering over the faith filled infinite
white-knuckling enough courage to speak of sins
wrestle written love ciphers for translating fringes
in fragments onto the next poet

in messages urging us to leave safety and step outside
and in time, return to spread the possibility
of how poets travel,

with backs to the rules

Аннотация
В данной статье анализируются особенности употребления временных форм инфинитива с частицей to и герундия, глаголы, после которых используется один из них, а также глаголы, после которых могут употребляться как инфинитив, так и герундий, и различия в их значении.
Ключевые слова: особенности, глаголы, инфинитив, герундий.

In the grammatical system of the English language, verb forms hold a particularly significant position. A verb not only conveys an action or a state but also functions as the central grammatical element of the sentence. Categories such as tense, person, number, and continuity of action are expressed through verbs. Therefore, the accurate use of verbs is vital for learners.
In English, verbs have various non-finite forms such as the infinitive, gerund, and participle. These forms enrich speech by adding semantic nuances such as cause, result, condition, or continuity. In Uzbek, non-finite verb forms correspond to verbal nouns and also possess their own tense distinctions.

The Tense Forms of the Gerund
1.Simple Gerund (V+ing): expresses a present or general action. Example: She advised going to the party yesterday.

2. Perfect Gerund (having + past participle): denotes an action completed before another. Example: Can you remember writing a letter to me for the first time?

The Tense Forms of the Infinitive

1. Simple Infinitive (to + verb): action simultaneous with or following the main verb. Example: It seems to rain.
2. Continuous Infinitive (to be + V-ing): expresses an ongoing action at the same time as the main verb. Example: My brother pretended to be listening to music.
3. Perfect Infinitive (to have + past participle): action occurring before the main verb. Example: He refused to have stolen the money.
4. Perfect Continuous Infinitive (to have been + V-ing): continuous action prior to the main verb. Example: She seems to have been learning English for two years. Verb Usage

• Infinitive is used to express purpose, after adjectives (happy, eager), after nouns/pronouns (something, someone), after too/enough, and in structures like it + be + adjective. Example: I always do my homework to achieve good results.
• Gerund functions as a noun, is used after certain verbs (enjoy, avoid, consider), after expressions (be busy, can’t help, have difficulty), and after prepositions. Example: Reading is useful for us.
• 
  Change of Meaning with Gerund and Infinitive
  Some verbs allow both forms but change meaning depending on which is used:
• Remember: remember to do = not forget / remember doing = recall
• Stop: stop to do = pause for another action / stop doing = quit
• Try: try to do = attempt / try doing = experiment
• Regret: regret to do = be sorry / regret doing = feel sorry about
• Mean: mean to do = intend / mean doing = involve
• Forget: forget to do = not remember / forget doing = not recall
• 
  The correct use of gerund and infinitive is essential for learners of English. These forms influence not only grammatical accuracy but also the semantic content of speech. A clear understanding of their forms, functions, and meaning differences allows learners to express themselves more fluently and precisely.
  The main difference between gerunds and to-infinitives in terms of temporal meaning lies in the fact that the gerund generally expresses the action as a process or a factual event, while the to-infinitive conveys purpose, intention, or result. Perfect forms highlight actions that have already occurred, whereas passive forms indicate actions performed upon the subject or actions that are required to be performed.
  Consequently, the correct use of gerund and to-infinitive forms is a crucial means of accurately expressing temporal meanings in English.

Your eyes

I always remember your eyes
Green with hope
That hope that slipped through your fingers
That hope that in your youth swept you away…

Those eyes
that life dragged away
with the current
of despair
trying to extinguish them…

Your eyes that light up
at the simplest things
and fight to keep the light of life alive…

That life that wasn’t easy
that was an eruption
of incomprehensible situations…

Your eyes still hold the flame
Of hope
That hope that so often
was lost along life’s path.

Nietzsche was that Poet which
Cried blood, sweat and tears
Walking that Germanic harmattan
Which the consensus wicked weep
Wavering, colluding bracks and waters

To launch out a pile
And brushes to rinse mouths
Which scent gelatinous fragrances that
Dance out the heart and purity
And wish breathing into mapped

Malactivity. Modes insist the bridals
Breed out love and care,
And hope and understanding.
Were there those chlorophyll breeds,
Heart hearth would have been

Sublime, earth beards washed clean
And the intestine pushed off
To the brim, nirvana? Scanners
Collude to yet convey hunger,
To match the matchless sticks

And to wish and growl,
And to hold those penniless
Veins those abstract arbitrations
Achieved within timely intonations
Miraculous, missive, ringing mass

The graves gravid and gowned,
Numerous necessities numbering
Knead needle nook shapes
Cushioning cachets, thrown off
Sachets in the life of being.

One is not part and parcel,
One is not a negative
To hope to be without
Waste, without fetching figures
Wiring woe wills walking wean

But to pursue out lack,
Contentment must stably stare
The face of the heart
To garner and to pounce
Minutiae unravel gravel gaunt.

Verily, life itself spells spook
Personalities, tint the bottling
Beards bead connote uphold
To show and to muster
Minutes, seconds, searching.
