Abstract
This paper examines the features and difficulties of machine translation of William Shakespeare’s poetic texts, in particular, cases of distortion or violation of lexical units and stable phrases. The analysis is based on a comparison of the original text with the results of a translation performed using modern machine translation systems. Special attention is paid to typical errors related to the ambiguity of words, violation of syntactic connections, ignoring the cultural and contextual meaning of metaphors, as well as the destruction of poetic structure. The work highlights the need to take into account the stylistic and semantic features of poetic discourse in automated translation and suggests ways to improve machine translation algorithms to more accurately convey the artistic and emotional nuances of poetry.
The given article dwells on the discursive functions of lexical repetition
in Tajik and English from a comparative perspective. The relevance of this study stems
from the need to identify universal and specific mechanisms of text organization across
languages. The aim of the study is to analyze the role of lexical repetition as a means of
cohesion, expressivity, and pragmatic impact in discourse. The study utilizes methods of
comparative-contrastive, functional-stylistic, and discourse analysis. The study’s material includes literary and journalistic texts in Tajik and English.
The results of the study demonstrate that lexical repetition performs a number of
universal functions, including ensuring text coherence, highlighting key meanings, and
enhancing expressiveness. At the same time, nationally specific features are identified: in Tajik, repetition is often emotionally expressive, whereas in English, it is more structured and subject to rhetorical norms.
This article examines the linguistic and stylistic challenges encountered in translating modernist prose from English into Uzbek, with particular reference to Virginia Woolf’s modernist novels Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. The study analyzes the difficulties involved in rendering the author’s stream of consciousness technique, complex syntactic structures, symbolic imagery, individual writing style, and culture-specific elements in the translation process. Furthermore, it provides a scholarly discussion of effective translation strategies aimed at preserving the aesthetic value of the literary text, the author’s distinctive style, and its pragmatic effect. The findings contribute to the advancement of the theory and practice of literary translation between English and Uzbek and support the development of principles for the adequate translation of modernist literary works.

The results show that LLMs and Google Translate consistently outperform specialized MT systems in terms of fluency, meaning preservation, and lexical-thematic alignment.

: This paper examines the adequacy of translating idiomatic language in Serbian media headlines into German and Russian, with particular emphasis on set expressions using artificial intelligence tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google Translate). The corpus comprises twenty-one headlines collected from online news portals, with a focus on the potential and limitations of these three tools, as well as on the relationship between literalness and expressiveness in translation. The results indicate that these AI tools are highly effective at the lexical and syntactic levels, but also reveal limitations in the domain of phraseology, that is, in the translation of stylistically marked linguistic units.

This paper traces the history of the concept of the syntactic category
ākupeyar
‘referent shifting noun’ in Tamil grammatical tradition and its transformation into a semantic category and the role of Sanskrit grammatical thoughts in the transformation. Theoretically limited number of
ākupeyar
s multiplies and the semantic (referential) shift between nouns becomes layered. A shared syntactic of
ākupeyar
with
vēṟṟumai-p peyar
‘case carrying noun’ loses its importance when the discussion of the former turns to semantics. The discussion turns to the difference of the semantic shift in
ākupeyar
and the headless compound
aṉmoḻittokai
. In modern literary and other communication studies,
ākupeyar
is equated with trope.
This article examines the relevance of grammatical structures in stemming meaning from Shakespeare’s Sonnets 3, 40 and 147 through a formalist lens. By interrogating the intrinsic elements of language, such as syntax, semantics, and literary devices, the paper reveals how these features contribute to the sonnets’ thematic richness and highlights the relevance of grammatical and linguistic structures. The analysis of grammatical composition, including clauses, sentence types and punctuation, exposes the poet’s purposes and emotions, as well as the characters’ behaviour. Sonnet 3 serves as a pivotal point, showing the poet’s appeal to the “fair young man” concerning the nature of beauty and procreation, while Sonnet 40 brings to light themes of betrayal and loss through complex sentence structures. On the other hand, Sonnet 147 mirrors hopelessness in response to earlier denunciation, as indicated by disordered expressions. Ultimately, this article aims to highlight the significance of structural analysis in comprehending Shakespeare’s poetic expression by examining similarities and differences among the selected sonnets. This underscores the wider implications of the interconnected themes of love, beauty, and existential reflection.
