Abstract

This article systematizes the theoretical foundations for a linguoculturological analysis of Uzbek Oghuz dialects. The aim is to construct a coherent conceptual model that explains how language and culture interact in Oghuz dialectal speech through a defined set of categories, analytical units, and interpretive stages. Methodologically, the study integrates cognitive-semantic analysis, ethnolinguistic interpretation, discourse-pragmatic reading of context, and dialectological procedures, including interpreting dialect data as linguocultural units. The novelty lies in proposing operational criteria for identifying carriers of cultural semantics in Oghuz dialects, specifying mechanisms that link dialectal lexicon and phraseology with value systems, and adapting the notion of a local cultural model to step-by-step analytical practice. The results provide a theoretically grounded framework for indexing and interpreting dialect materials in linguocultural research and for comparing micro-areal cultural meanings within the Uzbek dialect continuum.
