Abstrak:

This article investigates the pragmatics of interrogation in English and Uzbek detective texts from a comparative linguistic perspective. The study focuses on speech acts, questioning strategies, politeness mechanisms, and pragmatic goals employed during interrogation scenes. The material is based on selected English and Uzbek detective narratives in which interrogation constitutes a core narrative episode. The analysis reveals that English detective discourse tends toward institutionally regulated, pragmatically restrained interrogation strategies, while Uzbek discourse is characterized by emotionally charged, morally oriented, and socially embedded interrogative practices. The findings contribute to pragmatics, discourse analysis, and comparative literary linguistics.
