THE LEXICAL-SEMANTIC LAYER AND ITS PSYCHOLOGICAL LOAD IN NODIR NORMATOV’S WORKS

Abstract

This article examines the lexical-semantic layer and its psychological load in the works of Nodir Normatov, one of the prominent representatives of contemporary Uzbek prose. The research focuses on how the writer uses lexical choices, semantic nuances, and connotative meanings to convey deep psychological states, inner conflicts, and emotional experiences of his characters. Special attention is given to the interaction between language and psychology, demonstrating how linguistic means enrich the narrative structure and deepen the portrayal of human consciousness in literary texts.

Keywords

lexical-semantic layer, psychological load, connotation, inner state, emotional meaning, literary language.
