Traditional Vocabulary in The Qarluq Dialects of Surxondaryo: Words Denoting Kinship and Household Items

The oil and gas industry encompasses a highly technical and interdisciplinary lexicon that poses challenges for language acquisition among learners in professional settings. This study investigates the effectiveness of the contextual approach in mastering domain-specific terminology, contrasting it with traditional lexical methods. The contextual method, which involves the use of technical texts, industry conversations, and video materials, was tested on students in vocational schools in Andijan and Fergana. Experimental results indicated that students exposed to contextual learning retained terminology with greater accuracy (76%) and demonstrated enhanced communicative competence compared to the control group (52%). The findings highlight the contextual approach as a powerful pedagogical tool that fosters deeper conceptual understanding and practical application of specialized terms, thereby supporting professional readiness in the oil and gas sector.
