Essay from Dilnoza Bekmurodova

Young Central Asian woman with dark hair up in a bun and in a dark coat and tie and white collared shirt.

The Call of Home

Sometimes silence speaks louder than words.

In distant lands, surrounded by the noise of foreign cities, there lives a quiet space in my heart. And within that silence, there is always one voice — the call of Home.

One day, walking through a crowded street far from my country, I caught the scent of freshly baked bread. At once, my heart trembled. It was not just bread — it was the smell of my childhood yard, the warmth of my neighbors’ ovens, my mother’s voice calling: “Come, my child.” In that moment, I realized: Home never leaves us, even when we are thousands of miles away.

Every person carries a homeland within their heart. For some, it is a mother’s lullaby. For others, the shadow of mountains, the scent of rain on thirsty soil, or the laughter of children playing in dusty streets. Homeland is not just a piece of land. It is memory, it is root, it is the voice that follows you wherever you go.

I remember the soil of my childhood yard, soft and warm beneath my feet. I remember elders gathering at dusk, their words weaving history into my soul. I remember the vast blue sky of my homeland, so endless that it seemed to embrace me. Those moments became more than memories — they became my homeland itself.

And I know this: when an American remembers his homeland, he may see golden fields stretching endlessly. When an Indian remembers, he may hear temple bells and the chants rising into the air. When an Uzbek remembers, he may smell the clay-oven bread and hear the songs of ancestors. Different, yet the same. For homeland is the place where your heart first learned to beat.

Homeland is not divided by religion, race, or borders. It is a sacred whisper that says: “You are of this soil, you are of this root.” Even if years and distances separate us, even if we live on the farthest shore, one scent, one song, one word can shatter the walls of distance — and in a single breath carry us back home.

Home is love.

Home is longing.

Home is the soil that shaped us, the sky that watched over us, the dream that never dies.

And today, once again, I smell that bread. I close my eyes, and I hear the birds of my childhood, the gentle prayer of my mother. And I hear it clearly, unshakably — the call of Home.

Poetry from Alan Catlin

Work Anxiety In the Lake District

First orders come from

above through murder holes

drilled into the floor where

the main bar sinks overflow

and the slop sinks leak.

The waitress is sleeping,

head down on the invisible

cellar bar while a rush of

patrons arrive, walking single

file down misaligned stairs,

chanting verses from a Pink Floyd

song, shouting out orders as they

pass into the well-lighted, unfinished

basement lounge. Second orders

come over the bar from everywhere

at once but all the bottle are

somewhere else, up flights of stairs

others are using, all the taps open

and free flowing but the glassware

is inaccessible in too tall, overhead

racks, in too low cabinets you have to

lie down next to in order to retrieve

what lies within, reaching hands

scraped and bleeding on rough hewn

wooden shelves, on the chipped and

broken glass, still more orders come

and there is no room to move,

the basement ceiling pressing down,

more murder holes being drilled,

delivering last orders from above.

Bleeding: a work anxiety dream

Finally dozing after being unable

to sleep. Anxiety dreams, immediate and intense.

No longer do they focus on undergrad

academic failure, flunking out, the unknowable end.

The end in those college days meant

a place like Vietnam.  Oddly, no anxiety

dreams of grad school, though the workload

was twice as bad, no sleep then, between

classes, assignments, working a late night

job. No sleep, then, for years; living on

beer, empty gas tank fumes and beer.

The anxious dream centers on the work-

place, introduces a wound, a glass cut

to the bone, blood in the ice.  No one

cares. It’s all about the bleeding self

carrying on, working, tending bar

one handed for ten hours without a break.

Everyone who sees the wound says

it needs stitches.  Lots of stitches.

The bleeding wouldn’t stop, the stained bar rag

slipping, hanging loose around the wrist.  

But there I am, building cocktails with my right hand,

deliberate, but carrying on, all fluidity lost

for the duration. No one cares how I feel,

if the wound is dealt with or not.

No one cares how I am unless the drinks

are tainted.

Abu Ghraib: a  work anxiety dream

That one where you are

transported to one of those

torture chamber prisons in Iraq

where they apply hoods with

no eye slits and strap you into

stress positions and play

repetitive bass line music/ noise

punctuated by a kind of bell so that

you feel as if you are only half-

conscious/passing out and a voice

accompanies the noise chanting

in a foreign language you think of

as Urban, not one recognizable as

an actual tongue but something

like one, endlessly repeating spat out

hate infused syllables so you plead,

“I’ll talk. I’ll tell you anything.”

But they don’t want you to talk.

They want you to suffer.

  Sleeper Awake: a work anxiety dream

I wake up in my dream though

I know I am still asleep.

I’m late for work even though

this isn’t time for my shift.

They must have called me in to open

the day after a night I closed.

This used to happen quite often

at The Rib when Linda was working

as she didn’t know where the bottles

went.  So I’m getting dressed and

it begins to feel like the Dali dream

sequence in “Spellbound” inside

the bar I have been transported to.

And then it is raining while I’m rushing

to the bus stop and my umbrella is

full of holes but I’m moving backward

instead of forward and I’m going to be

really late and wet which also used

to happen all the time at The Rib

as traffic was so bad I could never

cross Route 5 . But I’m not working

at The Rib anymore, even in the dream,

it’s The Tavern and one of the college

kids is already setting the place up,

so what did they need me for?

And he’s taking rolls of quarters,

like a hundred of them from some guy

off the street and giving him all

our big bills and the owner’s daughter

is cashing checks, so there is no cash

money at all in the drawer, just change,

more change than you could use in

a month but break a twenty? Forget it.

And the college guy is looking at me

like it’s all my fault and like, what good

was I anyway? I’m like way too old to be

working in a bar. So I perform a couple

of drink making, sleight-of-hand tricks

and he’s like Spellbound and I’m back

in that dream again, though it seems more

and more like that black and white flick,

“Kafka” and then the Welles noir, “The Trial,”

and I finally realize the only reason that I’m

   there at all is someone has to get shot in the end.

Half-Tone Beckett in Bar Light:

A Work Anxiety Poem

They went down to the cellar

with flashlights and returned,

filthy, bedraggled as hounds

left in the rain to wallow in

offal and mud.

They decamped, mid-bar on stools,

that scraped the foot scuffed floors

amid the remains of a night of

serious drinking.

Seen from afar, well above the bar,

light is refracted through green

bar bottle glass like shards of

misspent lives, dissembled as

hobo Hoover towns like hoarse

voiced village criers delivering

messages no one wants to hear

around camp fires in 50 gallon

drums.

All the garbage of their lives

amount to nothing more than

left-behind stogie stumps and

cigarette end prophecies that mean

nothing in harsh pre-dawn haze

waiting for what the new day brings.

Work Anxiety Dream: Stalker

After hours, lights down in the bar,

chair legs facing up on the tables,

only the EXIT lights glowing,

the click of the sound turned down jukebox

playing songs, no one can hear,

random compressors kicking on,

shutting off, the ice machine dumping

a new load of cubes on the mounds

in the deep freeze…

Down the worn thin, unevenly spaced

stairs, into the low ceiling cellar where

the walk-in coolers full of beer are,

the leaking pipes, frayed electrical

wires, the single too-low wattage bulbs

on pull chains are and the wooden, sagging

shelves packed with bar supplies,

used guest checks, register tapes and

the overwhelming smell of sewage,

the creeping damp from the cobblestone

floor, the standing water the sump pumps

can’t contain, where the footsteps not

your own follow yours in a hard-to-focus

gloom, each deep breath feeling like

the next to last one, as we move from one

shadow place to the next, opening long

forgotten doors into closets, new found

rooms that lead to other worlds, darker

places where the walls sweat and the all

in black man behind me raises his arm

holding the long wide bladed knife

as if to strike as another door opens

and a new phase of this hide and seek game

for keeps, begins.

Poetry from Maja Milojkovic

IN THE MIRROR

In the mirror, through your own eyes,

you watch me.

You call to me.

You hide me.

You love me.

You close your eyes — to forget,

to stop everything.

But like water at the mill — it does not stop.

A wheel of liquid drops keeps turning,

life flows like a river.

I am born again in your eyes,

beneath your eyelids,

a love with which you cover

another love.

Forgetfulness comes when the mirror breaks.

But ours…

Ours is reborn each time —

when you look at yourself

and in your reflection recognize my eyes.

That is us:

connected by thoughts,

without meeting,

without touch,

without anything —

yet with everything,

in the fullness of feeling

that transcends words.

Essay from Nafosat Jovliyeva

Young Central Asian woman with long dark hair, brown eyes, and a white ruffled blouse outside in front of a leafy green tree on a sunny day.

Annotation: This article examines the role of technology in modern language learning. It highlights how digital tools such as online dictionaries, mobile apps, and artificial intelligence-based systems are changing the process of acquiring new languages. The research also discusses both the advantages and challenges of using technology in linguistics education. Examples from real-life practices are presented to support the arguments.

Keywords: language learning,technology, linguistics, digital tools, education,efficient,translate,learners,skills,multilingualism,artificial intelligence,globalization.

Introduction :In the 21st century, technology has become an inseparable part of education, especially in the field of linguistics. Traditional language learning methods such as memorization, grammar-focused drills, and classroom-based lessons are now being supplemented—or even replaced—by digital resources. The integration of technology into language learning is not simply a trend; it is a necessity brought about by globalization and the demand for multilingual competence. Unlike in the past, when learners relied heavily on textbooks and teacher-led instruction, today’s students can practice listening through podcasts, improve speaking skills with interactive applications, and enhance vocabulary with online flashcards. For example, instead of repeating words mechanically, learners now use applications like Quizlet or Anki, which apply spaced repetition algorithms to ensure long-term retention of vocabulary. This represents a significant shift from passive memorization to active, technology-supported engagement.Furthermore, the integration of technology into language learning is not simply a trend but rather a global necessity. Globalization has created an environment where multilingual competence is increasingly required. Students are expected not only to know foreign languages but also to use them effectively in international communication, business, and academia. Technology makes this goal more achievable by connecting learners with authentic resources and native speakers across the globe. For instance, video conferencing platforms such Zoom or Microsoft Teams allow language learners to attend virtual classes taught by instructors thousands of miles away.Another key factor is personalization. Traditional classrooms often adopt a “one-size-fits-all” approach, but digital platforms use adaptive learning systems to tailor content according to the learner’s level and progress. Artificial intelligence-driven tools, such as language chatbots or pronunciation analyzers, provide instant feedback, something that is difficult to achieve in a crowded classroom.Ultimately, technology has redefined the boundaries of language learning. It no longer occurs solely within the four walls of a classroom but extends to every part of a learner’s daily life—through mobile apps, online communities, and digital immersion environments. This combination of accessibility, flexibility, and global connectivity makes technology not just an addition to traditional methods but an essential pillar of modern linguistics education. The integration of technology into language learning is not merely a passing trend but rather a global necessity. In a world where communication transcends borders, the ability to master multiple languages is highly valued in business, education, and international relations. Technology plays a crucial role in bridging this gap.For example, digital platforms such as Duolingo, Memrise, and Busuu provide learners with opportunities to study languages interactively at their own pace. These tools adapt to individual progress and offer personalized learning experiences, something that traditional classrooms often struggle to achieve. The accessibility of these resources also ensures that people from different socio-economic backgrounds can learn languages without the barriers of cost or geography.

The Relevance of the Topic:The importance of technology in language learning lies in its ability to provide access, flexibility, and efficiency. Unlike traditional methods, learners today have opportunities to practice language skills anytime and anywhere. Mobile applications like Duolingo and Memrise allow learners to study vocabulary and grammar interactively. Online platforms such as Coursera or edX provide language courses taught by native speakers from across the globe.Another key aspect of relevance is the impact of artificial intelligence (AI). For example, AI-powered chatbots can simulate conversations, helping learners improve speaking and listening skills without fear of making mistakes. This demonstrates how technology not only supports but also motivates learners.Analysis with Examples

§ 

Ø Online Dictionaries and Translators

Digital dictionaries such as Oxford Online or Cambridge Dictionary give instant access to word meanings, pronunciations, and examples. Tools like GoogleTranslate provide immediate translation, though not always perfect, making them practical aids for beginners.

Ø Mobile Learning Apps

Applications such as Duolingo and Babbel turn language learning into a game-like experience. For example, Duolingo rewards learners with points and badges, which increases motivation. Research shows that learners using mobile apps practice more consistently than those relying solely on textbooks. Access to Authentic Materials.Learners can watch films, listen to podcasts, and read articles in their target language. For instance, a student studying English can follow international news through the BBC Learning English platform, which combines real-world news with structured language learning exercises.

Ø  Social Media and Online Communication

Social platforms like Facebook groups, Reddit communities, or language exchange apps (HelloTalk, Tandem) enable learners to communicate with native speakers. This offers real-life practice opportunities that traditional classrooms often lack. Interactive Communication:Virtual platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Tandem connect learners with teachers and native speakers worldwide. Unlike in traditional classrooms where interaction is limited to classmates, these tools allow real-time cross-cultural communication.

Ø  Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Assistants

Voice assistants like Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant can be used to practice pronunciation and everyday conversation. AI systems analyze the learner’s speech, detect mistakes, and suggest improvements. For example, ChatGPT itself can be a tool for practicing different aspects of language learning. Adaptive Learning and Personalization: Artificial intelligence-powered applications adjust lessons based on the learner’s strengths and weaknesses. For example, pronunciation apps like Elsa Speak use speech recognition technology to provide immediate feedback, helping learners achieve near-native accuracy in speaking.

Advantages and challenges 

v Accessibility: learning anytime, anywhere

v Motivation: interactive and game-based tasks

v Personalization: adaptive learning systems adjust to learner’s level

v Exposure: direct communication with native speakers

v Overreliance on technology can reduce traditional study discipline

v Not all online content is reliable or accurate

v Learners may face digital distraction instead of focused study

v Some students lack stable internet or devices

 Importance of Technology in Linguistics: From a broader perspective, technology enhances not only language acquisition but also linguistic research. Linguists use digital corpora to analyze language patterns, study dialects, and explore sociolinguistic trends. Speech recognition and natural language processing (NLP) tools also contribute to advancements in translation, language preservation, and artificial intelligence.For example, endangered languages can now be recorded, digitized, and shared globally. This ensures that they are preserved for future generations and made accessible for study. Similarly, online collaboration platforms allow linguists from different countries to work together on projects without geographical limitations.

    Conclusion

Technology has redefined the boundaries of language learning and research in linguistics. It offers accessibility, personalization, and global connectivity, which traditional classrooms cannot fully provide. Far from being a simple supplement, technology has become an essential pillar in modern education. By embracing digital tools, linguistics not only adapts to the demands of globalization but also empowers individuals to communicate effectively across cultures and societies.

The future of linguistics lies in the synergy between human expertise and technological innovation. As artificial intelligence and digital platforms continue to advance, language learning will become more efficient, inclusive, and interconnected than ever before.

Poetry from Sharifova Saidaxon

Childhood

Childhood — gone, never to return,

Yet it makes us long in innocence.

That pure, untainted childhood,

I still yearn for it even now.

Growing up is good, yes,

But childhood was the best.

Pain was only in the body,

There were no grudges at all.

Has it truly gone forever?

I’ll spend my life missing it.

Ah, it was so different,

Those wonderful days we miss.

We were children back then,

We knew nothing of sorrow or worry.

We played and were mischievous a little,

Yet still — we were children.

There were no thieves of the heart,

Pain was only in the body.

Everyone was good to us,

We knew nothing of the bad.

And as we grew older,

We learned everything.

If growing up is truly like this,

I’d have been content never to grow up!

     Abstract

     This article examines the strategic role of globalization, innovation, and investment in ensuring the sustainable development of entrepreneurial activity. In particular, globalization is seen as a driving force in the introduction of new technologies and the achievement of environmental sustainability, while investment serves as the key instrument for implementing these processes. The study analyzes the experiences of Uzbekistan and other countries, offering modern approaches and recommendations aimed at sustainable economic growth. Furthermore, it considers the role of globalization, innovation, and investment in the sustainable development of entrepreneurship, their interrelation, and effectiveness, using Uzbekistan as a case study. Based on international experiences, the paper explores crucial strategies and directions for contemporary entrepreneurship. These findings are of practical importance not only for business entities but also for institutions engaged in economic policy-making.

     Keywords: Innovative economy, digital technologies, economic reforms, opportunities, transformation, global cooperation, environmental security.

     Introduction

      Today, sustainable development in the global economy has become a key objective not only for state policy but also for entrepreneurial activity. Innovations help address socio-economic challenges through technological solutions, while investments provide the financial basis for implementing these solutions. “Globalization involves economic and industry integration with the rest of the world, removing restrictions on imports and foreign investment… Globalization has created a knowledge-intensive economy, making firms’ search for the foreign market opportunities necessary in order to survive.”

     Therefore, the sustainable development of entrepreneurs remains one of the key topics in the modern economy. For entrepreneurs, innovation is not merely technological advancement but also new approaches and solutions that lead to economic efficiency and social sustainability. Through innovation, it is possible not only to improve the quality of products and services but also to create new markets and opportunities. At the same time, investment serves as the financial foundation for the development of entrepreneurial activity. “Globalization boosts the process of market predictions in the pursuit of economic growth. When economic, political, and social forces gain traction by promoting policies and the climate favoring globalization, entrepreneurial results reach out.”

     They provide the resources necessary to support innovation, enhance competitiveness, and meet market demands.

     Analysis of the Literature Used

     Scientific literature and research on sustainable entrepreneurship, innovation, and investment are important sources for gaining an in-depth understanding of these areas and developing effective strategies based on them. The reviewed literature can be thematically divided into the following groups:

      Theoretical Research

      Theoretical research focuses on studying the essence of economic development, innovation, and investment. For example:

     As Schumpeter (1942) emphasized in his work “Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy, innovation is regarded as a “creative destruction” mechanism of economic development.” It contributes to increasing competition and producing high-quality goods in the market by creating new technologies and products.

      Porter and Kramer (2011): This study highlights the important role of innovation in addressing social and economic problems. The authors put forward the concept of “creating shared value,” stressing that directing business activities toward social issues can lead to more effective results.

     Practical Research

      Practical research examines the effectiveness of innovation and investment based on real-life examples and experiences. Studies in this group include the following:

McKinsey (2022): The company’s report analyzed digital technologies as a means of improving efficiency in entrepreneurship. The report noted the importance of automated systems, artificial intelligence, and digital services in business development.

     OECD (2023): The report focused on the role of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in innovative development. Recommendations were provided on promoting sustainable economic growth through supporting SMEs.

      Methodology

      This study examines a number of similarities and differences between Uzbekistan and Germany—one of the world’s developed countries—in terms of entrepreneurship financing. Therefore, the use of a Venn diagram in this article is considered one of the most effective methods. The Venn diagram makes it possible to clearly illustrate the common and distinct aspects of the policies and practices of Uzbekistan and Germany in financing entrepreneurship.

Analysis and Results

Figure 1. Venn diagram

      The results of the Venn diagram indicate that in both countries, defining entrepreneurship as a priority in state policy, establishing mechanisms to support innovative projects, and offering tax incentives contribute to improving the business environment. In Germany, the diversity of funding sources and the effectiveness of the dual education system, and in Uzbekistan, reliance on technology parks and foreign investment, define each country’s unique strengths and limitations.

      Conclusion and Recommendations

     Innovation and investment play a central role in the sustainable development of entrepreneurial activity. Innovation enables the introduction of new technologies, products, and services that serve economic and social sustainability. They are essential tools for increasing entrepreneurs’ competitiveness, exploring new markets, and achieving growth without harming the environment. Investment, by financing innovation, ensures the successful implementation of these processes. The experience of Uzbekistan demonstrates that state policies and strategies play a vital role in achieving sustainable development goals. Initiatives such as the Innovation Development Strategy, IT Parks, and free economic zones are creating significant opportunities for business entities.

      Based on this analysis, the following recommendations can be proposed:

     Workforce Development: Strengthen the focus on innovative knowledge and skills in the education system to train qualified specialists.

      Expand International Cooperation: Adopt international experience in innovation and investment, and strengthen relations with foreign investors.

      Advance Digital Transformation: Promote the widespread adoption of automated systems, artificial intelligence, and digital services.

      Furthermore, the objective of this study is to ensure that innovative ideas go hand in hand with their practical implementation.

Example:

       Online Business Simulator – Creating an online simulator for entrepreneurs. Through this interactive platform, users can experience all stages of business development—from starting their enterprise to producing products, and from developing a marketing strategy to bringing it to market. In the simulator, various challenges and opportunities arise, and users learn by choosing how to respond to them.

       The principle of operation of the proposed interactive platform is as follows: the user starts a business in the simulator, chooses a product or service, develops a financial plan, and implements a marketing strategy. Each decision affects the user’s success or failure. This provides an opportunity to explore the nuances of starting a business and gain practical skills.

       In conclusion, in the context of Uzbekistan, the combination of innovation and investment is a crucial factor not only in ensuring economic growth but also in increasing global competitiveness and achieving sustainable development. To successfully implement this process, it is necessary to strengthen cooperation between the state, entrepreneurs, and research institutions.
