- Abstract
-
This article examines the semantic features of Arabic lexemes used in Alisher Navoi’s work Holoti Sayid Hasan Ardasher. The study focuses on the historical and linguistic role of Arabic borrowings in the formation and development of the Uzbek literary language. Special attention is paid to the morphological and semantic adaptation of Arabic lexical units, particularly the use of singular and plural forms, their semantic transformation, and their functional integration into the lexical system of classical Uzbek. The article demonstrates that Arabic lexemes in Navoi’s text are not employed randomly; rather, they function as an important layer of vocabulary representing religious, philosophical, ethical, scientific, social, spatial, temporal, and abstract concepts. The analysis shows that many Arabic plural forms were assimilated into Uzbek with singular meanings, while in some cases singular and plural variants coexist and acquire distinct semantic or stylistic nuances. The study also reveals that Arabic vocabulary in Holoti Sayid Hasan Ardasher contributes to the elevated stylistic register of the text and reflects the influence of Arabic as a language of science, religion, and literature in the medieval Muslim East. The findings confirm the significance of interlingual contact in shaping the historical development of Uzbek literary vocabulary.
