Abstract

This comprehensive study delves into the intricate linguistic landscape of Bukhara, tracing the coexistence and evolution of languages in this historically significant city. Through a blend of linguistic surveys, historical document analysis, and interviews, the research uncovers the multilayered dynamics of language use and change. Statistical and thematic analyses reveal patterns of multilingualism, influenced by socio-economic factors, historical legacies, and modern globalization. The study highlights the prevalence of Uzbek, Tajik, Russian, and an emerging influence of English, particularly among younger populations. It provides a nuanced understanding of the complex interplay between languages, reflecting socio-political and cultural influences over time. The research contributes to the broader field of sociolinguistics by offering a detailed portrait of the linguistic diversity, historical depth, and ongoing evolution in Bukhara's linguistic environment.
