Sociocultural Aspects Of Declarative Speech Acts In English And Uzbek Languages

Abstract

Declarative speech acts are the types of utterances that adjust the reality or external situation simply by being uttered. The article analyzes sociocultural aspects of declarative speech acts in English and Uzbek languages. A comparative study shows what identical and diverse points declaratives possess in terms of their sociocultural factors in literary works of Abdulla Kahhar and Somerset Maugham. The study is a contribution to intercultural pragmatics and comparative linguistics by way of a deeper understanding into both social and cultural of declarative speech acts
