- Abstract
-
Phrasal verbs constitute one of the most distinctive and complex features of the English language. Their semantic opacity, polysemy, and structural variability pose serious difficulties not only for learners of English as a foreign language but also for translators working into languages that lack a comparable grammatical phenomenon, such as Uzbek. This article examines the lexical and grammatical properties of English phrasal verbs and analyzes the major challenges involved in translating them into Uzbek. The study highlights semantic, stylistic, and structural issues and proposes practical strategies for achieving adequate and context-sensitive translations.
