Abstract

This study explores the processes and methods involved in creating ideographic dictionaries for English and Uzbek languages. It examines the unique challenges and methodologies employed by lexicographers to capture the semantic richness and cultural nuances of both languages. By analyzing qualitative and quantitative approaches, such as corpus analysis and semantic mapping, the research highlights the effectiveness of these methods in enhancing user understanding and facilitating cross-cultural communication. The study also addresses the importance of balancing comprehensiveness with usability in dictionary design and the representation of cultural connotations. Through case studies and innovative practices, this work contributes to the discourse on effective lexicographical strategies in ideographic dictionary creation.
