Abstract
This article examines the challenges of translating cultural and heritage-related content from Uzbek newspapers into English, focusing on the linguistic and cultural barriers encountered in journalism. It emphasizes the critical role of translation in representing Uzbekistan's rich cultural identity to an international audience. Key challenges include conveying untranslatable concepts, adapting culturally specific references, and preserving the authenticity of idiomatic expressions and historical nuances. Through the analysis of articles from various Uzbek newspapers, the study identifies common translation issues and evaluates strategies used to address them, such as the use of contextual explanations, cultural equivalents, and supplementary notes. The findings reveal that effective translation not only requires linguistic proficiency but also a deep understanding of cultural contexts to ensure clarity and resonance for global readers. This research contributes to the field of translation studies by offering practical insights into translating culturally rich content for international news platforms. This study explores the translation issues associated with cultural and heritage topics in Uzbek newspapers translated into English.
