Challenges Faced by Non-native Uzbek Writers in Academic Writing
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Academic writing is a critical skill for students and scholars worldwide, requiring a strong command of both subject matter and language. Non-native writers face additional challenges, particularly those writing in a language that is not their mother tongue. For non-native Uzbek writers, these challenges are compounded by a unique blend of linguistic, cultural, and institutional barriers that hinder their academic writing. Uzbek, as the official language of Uzbekistan, has distinct grammatical structures, vocabulary, and writing conventions that create difficulties when students and scholars write in foreign languages such as English or Russian. This work aims to explore the challenges faced by non-native Uzbek writers in academic contexts, focusing on linguistic difficulties, cultural influences, and institutional support. Additionally, it will provide strategies for overcoming these challenges and improving academic writing skills.
