CONGRATULATORY TEXT AS A SPEECH GENRE
Abstract
This article analyzes congratulatory texts as a speech genre from linguistic, pragmatic, and linguocultural perspectives. Congratulatory texts are important speech phenomena that strengthen social relations between people, express positive emotional attitudes, and reflect cultural values. The article highlights the main features of congratulatory texts as a speech genre, their communicative purpose, structural components, formal and informal forms, national-cultural characteristics, and pragmatic functions. It also demonstrates the active manifestation of such concepts as respect, blessing, prosperity, family, household, and good wishes in Uzbek congratulatory texts.
