Derivational Features and Translation Problems of Aviation Terms (On English, Russian and Uzbek Examples)
Abstract
The derivational characteristics of aviation terminology are analyzed in this article, along with the primary problems that occur while translating such terms between Uzbek, Russian, and English. It looks at the linguistic processes that go into word creation, such as compounding, borrowing, and affixation, and how these vary between the three languages. The difficulties encountered during translation – such as lexical gaps, semantic changes, and cultural differences – are specifically discussed since they frequently make it more difficult to convey technical meaning. In order to address these problems, the paper uses a comparative method to provide examples and emphasize successful translation techniques like standardization, contextual adaptation, and descriptive translation. The study also stresses the importance of maintaining terminological consistency and being contextually aware in technical translation practices. Ultimately, the article contributes to the advancement of linguistic and translation studies, especially in the field of aviation, by offering valuable insights and practical recommendations for translators and researchers.
