The findings confirm that stress in Uzbek predominantly falls on the final
syllable of lexical words and is primarily realized through moderate intensity and
slight vowel lengthening, while pitch variation remains limited. Due to minimal
reduction phenomena and simple syllable structures, stress does not typically serve
a lexical contrastive function. Instead, it operates as a rhythmic and structural
element within the prosodic system.
These results establish a phonological basis for comparative analysis and help
explain difficulties Uzbek learners may encounter in acquiring variable and
contrastive stress patterns in English.
CONCLUSION
The study of stress patterns in the Uzbek language demonstrates that stress is
a structurally predictable and rhythmically conditioned feature of the language. The
syllable-timed organization, minimal vowel reduction, and relatively simple syllable
structures contribute to a stable prosodic system in which stress predominantly falls
on the final syllable of lexical words.
Unlike stress-timed languages, Uzbek does not rely on strong acoustic contrast
between stressed and unstressed syllables, and stress rarely performs a lexical
contrastive function. Instead, it serves primarily as a rhythmic and structural marker
within the phonological system.
These findings highlight the distinctive nature of Uzbek stress and provide a
foundation for further comparative research, particularly in analyzing phonological
differences between Uzbek and English and their implications for second language
acquisition.
