In the speech of a linguistic individual belonging to a particular culture, units that reflect the values inherent in this nation are found. Language is not only a means of communication between people, but also a treasure that preserves information about the culture to which they belong, the values, customs, national identity, and way of life that have been formed over the centuries. This article focuses on the role of linguistic and cultural units in determining a linguistic identity.
The purpose of the study is to show the role and significance of units existing in a stable, stereotyped form in the language in determining the linguistic and cultural identity of a linguistic individual.
To achieve the intended goal, the following tasks are envisaged: clarifying the concept of linguistic personality, identifying linguocultural units, highlighting the role and significance of linguocultural units in the realization of linguistic personality in artistic discourse. Linguisticcultural aspects in the language are reflected by such units that are distinguished by belonging only to this language, non-repetition, and the presence of specific lexical-semantic, syntacticstructural features. The study of such units is the task of linguoculturology. The article focuses on substantiating the fact that units indicating national-cultural affiliation are an important sign in expressing the linguocultural characteristics of a linguistic personality, and on identifying types of linguistic personalities specific to the Uzbek linguoculture.
The research used methods of linguistic description, classification, contextual, pragmatic, and linguocultural analysis.
In a literary text, a linguistic persona reflects a model of linguistic consciousness of an individual who possesses communicative experience and is a bearer of a specific national culture. Linguoculturology, when distinguishing personality types, involves the selection of personality types that have had a significant impact on the behavior of representatives of the corresponding culture. Naturally, the linguocultural characteristics of a linguistic person are determined from the point of view of the direct influence of the culture to which they belong on the language. In this case, the influence of the culture to which the speaker of this language belongs should be clearly visible and noticeable in the language units used by him.
The conclusion is based on the fact that accolades, curses, and similes are the main indicators in the study of linguistic personality from a linguocultural aspect. The focus is on the specificity associated with the use of such units, in particular, gender orientation, author's worldview, etc.
