Abstract: . Translation is an essential tool for facilitating communication between languages. Since English and Uzbek belong to different language families, various challenges arise in translation.This article explores the translation of proper nouns and geographical names from English into Uzbek, focusing on the linguistic and cultural challenges involved. Proper nouns often carry historical, cultural, and phonetic significance, making their translation complex. The study examines different translation strategies, including transliteration, transcription, and adaptation, highlighting their effectiveness in conveying meaning while preserving the original context.By comparing multiple translation approaches, the article provides insights into best practices for handling proper nouns in literary translation.
