Keywords:
Travel texts, semantic features, experiential narratives, English travel texts, Uzbek travel texts, emotional resonance.Abstract
This article explores the semantic features of travel texts in English and Uzbek, focusing on how linguistic and cultural factors influence the presentation of information and the evocation of imagery in travel discourse. Through comparative analysis, the study identifies key semantic elements such as modality, deixis, evaluative language, and descriptive expressions that shape the reader's perception of destinations. English travel texts often emphasize vivid, emotive language and individual experience, while Uzbek travel texts tend to incorporate more collective cultural references and formal tone. The research highlights the role of cultural worldview in shaping semantic choices and illustrates how these texts serve both informative and persuasive functions.
