Designing an English-uzbek Phrasal Verbs Dictionary: a Lexicographic Approach
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Phrasal verbs, integral to English yet challenging due to their idiomaticity and syntactic variability, pose significant difficulties for Uzbek learners. This study proposes a lexicographic framework, tested through sample entries, for an English-Uzbek phrasal verbs dictionary, featuring alphabetically organized entries with stress patterns, phonetic transcriptions, grammatical indicators, and contextual examples. Drawing from Oxford, Longman, and R. Courtney’s dictionaries, the design categorizes phrasal verbs by transitivity, includes synonyms, antonyms, and usage notes, and aims to enhance comprehension and practical use. The approach offers a tailored resource for Uzbek speakers, with potential for broader application in bilingual lexicography.
