USING HISTORICAL WORDS TO FILL LEXICAL GAPS IN LITERARY LANGUAGE
Khasanov, Abdumannon
Abstract
This study focuses on filling the language lexicon gaps with historical words. One of the important tasks of linguistics is to find words from historical sources that can fill lexical gaps and mobilize them to name a certain important concept. The preservation of a language with a stable lexical fund over centuries depends on the commonality and regularity of the diachronic and synchronic lexicon. The study article pays attention to studying the issues of enriching the lexicon of the Uzbek language with internal sources and the problems of reactivating historical words in the lexicon of the language. Some comments were expressed on the possibilities of naming concepts, which do not represent some words used in the historical period. The article provides opinions on the archaicization of particular words that were used in the historical period and the factors that caused their latent use; important recommendations were given to popularize such words in modern language lexicon. Through the method of semantic analysis and comparison, the privileged aspects of these words in filling lexical gaps were described, and proposals were developed to include them in the standard dictionaries of the literary language. The national and practical importance of reactivating such historical words in the language lexicon was emphasized.
