KINOYA (IRONIYA) VA SARKAZM (ISTEHZO) TUSHUNCHALARINING LINGVISTIK TABIATI
This article analyzes the linguistic nature of irony and sarcasm based on contemporary scientific literature. The study aims to identify the semantic, pragmatic, discursive, and multimodal features of irony and sarcasm, as well as to explain their similarities and differences. Drawing on recent studies, the paper examines the manifestation of irony and sarcasm in written discourse, social media communication, the use of emojis, children’s comprehension of speech, as well as their interpretation in computational linguistics and artificial intelligence-based detection systems
