Keywords: Phonetics, phonology, vowel sounds, consonant sounds, stress, intonation, assimilation, pronunciation, phonetic system. Introduction: Language is the most important social phenomenon of humanity and serves as the primary tool of communication among people. The formation and development of any language are primarily manifested through its phonetic system, as speech sounds constitute the fundamental material of language structure. Phonetic units are directly related to all levels of language — lexical, grammatical, and morphological — and play a crucial role in accurately conveying meaning.
The Uzbek language belongs to the Turkic language family and possesses a phonetic system characterized by complex phenomena and unique features formed over its historical development. The pronunciation of vowels and consonants, their changes in phonetic processes, and their functions in word formation are key criteria defining the national characteristics of the language. In particular, features such as vowel length, consonant voicing and devoicing, as well as processes like assimilation, dissimilation, stress, and intonation, have a unique realization in Uzbek.
This article provides a detailed analysis of the peculiarities of the Uzbek phonetic system, the role of vowels and consonants in phonetic processes, and the differences found in dialectal variations. Furthermore, it examines how phonetic phenomena affect meaning distinctions and phonetic changes over the course of historical development, based on scientific sources. The research results are theoretically and practically significant for modern studies in phonetics and phonology.
Literature Review: Several prominent scholars have made significant contributions to the study of the Uzbek phonetic system. A. Mahmudov explored the pronunciation of vowels and consonants, their articulatory changes in speech processes, and described them using experimental methods. He relied on phonetic observations to establish norms of literary pronunciation. His work laid the scientific foundation for determining pronunciation standards and demonstrated the practical importance of phonetics.
Ayyub G‘ulomov specialized in theoretical linguistics and studied word formation and morphology in the Uzbek language. Although his work did not focus directly on phonetics and phonology, it emphasized language structure, word formation, and speech organization. His theoretical methodology is considered valuable in phonetic research.
Abdulhamid Nurmonov focused on the phonological system of the Uzbek language, the functions of phonemes, and positional and combinatorial features of language units. M. Mirtojiev investigated the structure of the vowel system in Uzbek, their labialization, height, and historical development. He also compared phonetic differences in Karluk, Kipchak, and Oghuz dialects.
S. Otamirzayeva discussed the impact of phonetic phenomena on the teaching process, highlighting the role of stress, intonation, and assimilation in speech. M. Yusupova conducted an in-depth analysis of consonants, including voicing and devoicing relationships, and outlined rules and patterns of phonetic changes. A. Hojiyev developed theoretical foundations of phonology, paying special attention to the meaning-distinguishing function of phonemes. Sh. Rahmatullayev specialized in historical phonetics, analyzing phonetic changes in ancient written sources.
The works of these scholars have enriched the theoretical and practical understanding of the Uzbek phonetic system and contributed significantly to the development of phonetics as a discipline.
Analysis and Results: The Uzbek phonetic system shares common features with Turkic languages while exhibiting unique national characteristics. Research shows that the articulatory features of vowels and consonants, their changes during speech, and phonetic rules have evolved throughout the language’s historical development. Analysis of the vowel system demonstrates classification based on labialization, front-back position, and tongue height. Historical developments include certain phonetic changes, such as the shortening of long vowels in Old Turkic. In dialectal speech, vowel position shifts give rise to phonetic variants.
Stress and intonation play a crucial role in proper comprehension. Phonetic rules are key in establishing standards of literary pronunciation. Scientific studies in phonetics have shown that speech sounds possess not only physical and physiological characteristics but also semantic properties. Overall, studies on Uzbek phonetics provide a systematic understanding of phonemes, their role in distinguishing meaning, and factors influencing historical development. This strengthens the theoretical foundation of phonetics and contributes to the formation of literary language norms.
Conclusion: The phonetic system of the Uzbek language represents a fundamental layer of the language’s internal structure. The system of speech sounds, their articulatory and acoustic properties, and the role of phonetic processes are central to the field of phonetics. Sounds are not only the material basis of speech but also serve as meaning-distinguishing elements that connect language units. Therefore, scientific study of the phonetic system is essential for shaping literary norms, improving pronunciation culture, and enhancing overall speech culture in Uzbek.
In the Uzbek sound system, vowels and consonants function in harmony. Vowels are classified by labialization, front-back position, and tongue height, while consonants are categorized by voicing-devoicing, plosive-fricative, and sonorant characteristics. Phonetic processes — such as assimilation, dissimilation, stress, intonation, and elision — ensure natural adaptation of speech sounds and play a vital role in conveying the meaning of words and sentences. Research in phonetics confirms that the Uzbek phonetic system is continuously developing and evolving. Historical sound changes, dialectal variations, and pronunciation peculiarities reflect the richness and national spirit of the language. A thorough understanding of phonetic theory expands linguistic knowledge and provides a scientific foundation for teaching Uzbek, reinforcing literary standards, and developing speech culture.

THE USE OF PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS IN MODERN MASS MEDIA AND SOCIAL NETWORKS
Samarkand State Institute of Foreign Languages Faculty of Romance and Germanic Languages Philology and Language Teaching (French) 2nd-Year Student Dildora Abdullayeva Mukhiddin kizi abdullayevadildora006@gmail.com
ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the specific features of using phraseological units in the language of modern mass media and social networks. It highlights how the dynamic nature of the media environment and the need to capture audience attention contribute to the active use of phraseological expressions as expressive tools. The study examines the functional and stylistic role of phraseological units in media headlines, journalistic texts, and social media content, as well as their transformations, shortened forms, and meme-based variants. Additionally, the emotional, pragmatic, and communicative functions of phraseological units in media discourse are explored. Keywords: phraseological units, media language, social networks, media discourse, stylistic function, meme culture, transformation.
KIRISH Modern media and social networks are the most active social platforms that directly affect human thinking, speech and cultural communication. The agility of the Medial environment, short and touching reporting encourage journalists, content creators to use expressive means in their lives. Phraseologisms are therefore becoming one of the most effective language units in this process. The study and research of phraseological units has long been of interest to linguistic scientists. Until the 19th century, phrases were studied in lexicology, in which only their meanings and etymology were described.
New issues facing society in today’s globalization process, such as environmental crisis, gender inequality, or corruption, are also reflected in phraseological units. This article is aimed at analyzing how phraseologisms reflect the social life of not only the Uzbek people, but also humanity as a whole. Today, issues such as the purpose of using phraseological units, their transformation, the process of becoming a meme on social networks, semantic changes, and their impact on the audience have not been sufficiently studied.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY Semantic (meaning) and stylistic (methodological) analysis of phraseologisms in Media is carried out, and their function (function) in the text is determined. In this, the meaning of phraseologisms, through what stylistic means it is used, and its role in creating additional meaning and influence in the text are investigated. When the talk of phraseology began, schwetzar wrote that the French scientist Sh.It is impossible to remember Balli, who initially wrote his own book, ” Traite de stylistique française Bally. Ch. 1921), referring to frzeology. The term phraseological Bulic was the first to be applied to linguistics by V.Introduced by V Vinogradov. [Vinogradov, V.V.: 1946). Currently linguists. Although proverbs and sayings are also taught at the level of phraseological units, we will only consider units that are specific to idioms below.
Structural (grammatical) analysis :Phraseologism mainly represents character and action, and they belong to the category that grammatically denotes character or action. Most phraseologisms in French are phraseologisms that are related to the verb phrase category. Examples include avoir du sang de poulet – être paresseux, être lâché-be a coward.
Semantic analysis: in French, category SEMAS in the semantic content of phrasemes rely on phraseological meaning-for example Lexical-semantic analysis: phraseologisms of the verb category: Fowler aux pieds-to behold, rendre, faire hommage à qqn-to respect Stylistic analysis: verb, noun, ravish, adjective word-type phraseological units are widely used in newspapers and magazines, increasing textual impressiveness and serving to enhance communicativeness. Parler dans le vide, parler sans effet, parler en l’air – to talk in vain, that is, to talk too much. Ça ne mange pas de pain, il n’y a pas de risque-no harm.
Connotative meaning: quelque chose qui cloche – something is not working well, Ne vous en faites pas, Ne vous inquiéte pas – don’t worry
ANALYSIS AND RESULTS Idiomatic Expression Literary Standard Spoken Mem – Tik tok Analysis Results Prendre son temps To be on time, not to rush Go quietly, Do not hurry Chill, No stress Expressed humorously in memes, enriched with more emojis Raconter des salades Lie Lying, telling lies Blah blah again,He’s telling me stories In memes, phrases are shortened and can be used in a humorous tone. Avoir le cœur sur la main Be generous Be kind Trop good ce mec, heart, big Tone increases in social networks En faire une montagne Making an elephant from a fly Exaggerate OMG it doesn’t matter Short phrases are used in memes
Pleuvoir des cordes It’s raining heavily. It’s raining in torrent Rain mode Memes are used with emojis. Remuer ciel et terre To act with all his might Do everything I move everything, Going ill in The memes use emojis and English idioms. Se bouffer le nez Fight tirelessly Arguing, getting angry, violently They slam each otherFight mode On We use emotional and short phrases in memes. Changer de disque Changing the subject during a conversation Change the subject, move on Ok next topic, change thé vibe We use mixed idioms in English in memes. Ouvrir son cœur Open your heart Confide in yourself, speak frankly I tell you everything Memes are enriched with emojis
According to the results of my observations for a long time, these phrases are very common on the Sorbonne and @FrancaisAvecMoiii channels in the telegram channel mettre la main à la pâte and and ouvrir son cœur. These phrases are used officially. This section shows the characteristics of how phraseological units collected as a result of our research are used in modern French. In the table, each phrase is presented in terms of official, literary, oral familier and methods of use in social networks. In addition the phrases se bouffer le nez and remuer ciel et terre are common on youtube and instagram channels. French.Schol.tv and Français Avec Pierre can be observed on social pages.
The phrase En faire une montagne can also be used in literary language, official articles, oral familier case and memes. In memes, the phrase is used to express humor and laughter. The meaning of this phrase is to make an elephant out of a fly, that is, to make a big tragedy out of a small thing.
The idiom Pleuvoir des cordes is used in literary language, oral familier and memes,social media. This phrase we can use in official articles, press, official descriptions, and in the mouth-in everyday conversation. In memes, this phrase is used to describe heavy rain with visual humor.
REVIEW OF USED LITERATURE In his article on the structural properties of phraseological units, Iskandarova Mohira gave examples of Idioms on verb, noun, vowel, adjective word categories. The article also addresses the stylistic, semantic, connotative meaning, structural, and lexical semantic learning of phraseological units. When the talk of frzeology began, schwetzar wrote that the French scientist Sh.It is impossible to remember Balli, who initially wrote his own book, ” Traite de stylistique française Bally. Ch. 1921), referring to frzeology.The origin of phraseology, what it means, has made these clear. Schwetzar was the son of a French nobleman, Sh. Recalling Balli, he originally wrote his own book, ” Traite de stylistique française Bally. Ch. 1921), referring to frzeology.
The term phraseological units was the first to be applied to linguistics by V. Introduced by V Vinogradov. [Vinogradov, V.B.: 1946). Currently linguists. aphorism, who also taught Proverbs at the phraseological unit level, he considers only those units that are characteristic of the idiom.
Phraseology is an important area of linguistics and studies sustainable expressions that embody the cultural memory, worldview and historical experience of the people. Since the beginning of the 20th Century, V.V. Vinogradov, A.V. Kunin, B.A. Larin, N.N. Scientists such as Amosova have scientifically substantiated the classification, semantic nature, origin and linguistic features of phraseological units. In Uzbek linguistics, Sh. Rahmatullaev and A.E. Mamatov developed this field and conducted in-depth research on the role of phraseology in expressing national identity.
CONCLUSION During the study, it was found that phraseological units are actively used in modern French, especially in media and social networks. Observations have shown that many phrases are used identically in formal, literary, and oral speech, while on the internet they adapt to the form of meme, shorthand, or humor. This suggests that medial speech is dynamic and influential. In general, phraseologisms are manifested in modern communication as an important tool that increases figurativeness, emotionality and expressive power.

Introduction
In today’s world, globalization processes are increasingly integrating societies and penetrating all spheres of human life. While globalization creates new opportunities for humanity, it also gives rise to various challenges. Economic, cultural, and political relations among states are expanding, and the world is gradually forming into a single interconnected system. As a result of globalization, humanity has gained access to numerous opportunities. International trade has expanded, cultures have become closer to one another, and technological achievements have transformed daily life. However, globalization is not limited to positive outcomes alone. Alongside its benefits, it has also generated serious issues such as social inequality, environmental degradation, and the threat of losing national identity.
Main Part
Globalization has both advantages and disadvantages. One of its major achievements is the removal of trade barriers, which has led to increased interconnection among international markets. Through international institutions such as the World Trade Organization, trade agreements have become more accessible and efficient. Globalization also creates favorable conditions for the development of science and technology. With the help of the Internet, artificial intelligence, and mobile technologies, the world has become highly interconnected, and information exchange now takes place within seconds.
Moreover, globalization has expanded educational opportunities for students and researchers by providing access to international programs and studying abroad. In fields such as cinema, music, and sports, international events and festivals have accelerated cultural exchange. Global cooperation has also strengthened innovation and scientific collaboration across countries.
Despite these achievements, globalization has significant drawbacks. It has widened the gap between developed and developing countries, increasing global economic inequality. Environmental issues such as deforestation, climate change, and rising sea levels are among the negative consequences of global economic growth. In addition, migration processes associated with globalization have led to various social tensions and challenges in many societies.
Conclusion
In conclusion, globalization is an inseparable part of modern humanity, offering vast opportunities for development and progress. At the same time, its negative effects require careful management and regulation. Preserving national interests while promoting international cooperation, ensuring environmental sustainability, and reducing economic inequality are crucial for the future of humanity. A balanced and responsible approach to globalization will help maximize its benefits while minimizing its harmful consequences.

COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF MECHANICAL AND BIOPROSTHETIC HEART VALVE REPLACEMENT
Mahammadjonov Saidjahon Shokirjon ogli
Mirzamansurova Robiya Ahmadjon qiz
iKokand University, Andijan BranchFaculty of General MedicineAbstractHeart valves are essential anatomical structures that ensure unidirectional blood flow within the heart. In cases of valve insufficiency or stenosis, replacement surgery becomes a crucial intervention in modern cardiac surgery. Two primary types of prosthetic valves are used today: mechanical valves and bioprosthetic valves. Both types have distinct advantages and disadvantages, and the choice depends on factors such as patient age, health status, risk of thrombosis, and quality-of-life considerations.
Introduction to Heart Valves
Heart valves are vital anatomical and physiological structures responsible for maintaining the unidirectional flow of blood. Located between the chambers of the heart, they prevent backflow and ensure smooth circulatory function.
Main functions of heart valves:Maintaining one-way blood flowPreventing regurgitationSupporting efficient and coordinated heart functionCommon heart valve disorders:1. Stenosis — narrowing of the valve opening (e.g., aortic stenosis)2. Regurgitation — incomplete closure leading to backwar blood flow (e.g., mitral regurgitation)These conditions may lead to cardiac overload, impaired hemodynamics, and heart failure, often requiring valve replacement surgery.Indications for Valve ReplacementMitral stenosisAortic regurgitationSevere valve prolapseCongenital valve defectsInfective endocarditis with structural destructionBioprosthetic Heart ValvesBioprosthetic valves are typically manufactured from animal-derived tissues (e.g., bovine pericardium) and are widely used in cardiovascular surgery. They are associated with lower thrombotic risk compared to mechanical valves and therefore require minimal anticoagulation therapy.
Advantages:
Lower risk of thromboembolismReduced need for long-term anticoagulationImproved physiological compatibilityBetter quality of life in many patientsDisadvantages:Limited durability (typically 10–20 years)Higher risk of degeneration in younger patientsPossible need for reoperationEffectiveness of Bioprosthetic Valves
Clinical Effectiveness
Provide adequate hemodynamics and restore normal blood flow
Reduce symptoms such as dyspnea and fatigue
Improve long-term quality of life
Statistical Data:Average durability: 10–20 years
Reoperation risk increases afte 10 years, especially in younger patients
Physiology of the Human Heart
Heart activity is based on rhythmic myocardial contractions. Systole refers to contraction, whereas diastole refers to relaxation. Cardiac impulses originate from the sinoatrial node (60–80 impulses per minute), then spread through the atria, AV node, bundle of His, and Purkinje fibers, leading to coordinated contraction of ventricles.
The cardiac cycle includes: Atrial systoleVentricular systole Diastole (joint relaxation phase)During atrial contraction, blood moves into the ventricles; during ventricular systole, semilunar valves open to eject blood into the aorta and pulmonary artery.
Comparison Between Mechanical and Bioprosthetic Valves
Research Findings: Studies show that mechanical valves have a lower reoperation rate, but require lifelong anticoagulation therapy, increasing the risk of bleeding.Meta-analysis indicates that in patients aged 50–70 years, survival is higher with mechanical valves.In patients above 70 years, bioprosthetic valves are preferred due to reduced anticoagulation requirements and lower bleeding risk.Postoperative outcomes (stroke, bleeding, infection) show no significant difference between the two groups immediately after surgery.Reoperation is significantly more common in the bioprosthetic group due to structural valve deterioration.
Summary of Key Differences: Feature Mechanical Valves Bioprosthetic Valves Durability Very long (20–30+ years) Moderate (10–20 years) Anticoagulation Lifelong Short-term or none Thrombosis Risk Higher Lower Reoperation Risk Low HigherBest for Younger patients Older (>70 years) or anticoagulation-intolerant patients
Conclusion Heart valves are crucial structures maintaining unidirectional blood flow and supporting efficient cardiac function. Disorders such as stenosis and regurgitation can severely impair heart performance, necessitating valve replacement surgery.Both mechanical and bioprosthetic valves play an essential role in modern cardiac surgery.Mechanical valves provide long-term durability but require lifelong anticoagulation.Bioprosthetic valves offer better physiological compatibility and lower thrombotic risk but have a limited lifespan.Current research supports the use of bioprosthetic valves in elderly patients, while mechanical valves remain preferable for younger individuals requiring long-term durability.Valve replacement significantly improves cardiac function, reduces symptoms of heart failure, and enhances overall quality of life, making it one of the most important and progressive fields in cardiovascular surgery.

Sometimes the Clouds and Sometimes the Angels (prose poem and picture)
at moments though it was generally overcast, the light of the sun so determinately arrived that it felt like an angel or group of angels giving a sign and blessing. I had a spinning ring silver w/several saints and divine figures and I touched it. I remembered other moments similar such as when a praying mantis out of nowhere flew across and landed beside me, watching me. it was the wings of the creature that made it appear like a fairy or angel or whatever the case, something more metaphysical than of this world. and then as life goes in cities and in rural and pastoral settings w/many blessings, the clouds resumed and even some rain and anxious strange wind had their turn and show of ruefulness and moving melancholy. but one had to take all moods of the capricious earth and learn from them by observing and remembering. like a soul that would scry the sky or an old-time sagacious psychic who had gifts of the spirit. so, step and step and step again, by the field and under late autumnal tree canopy beige and yellow and brown then…yes step again, to become a nature poet.
