Abstract

This study explores how sociolinguistic awareness affects the acquisition of English as a Second Language (ESL) in Uzbekistan, a country with various sociocultural and sociolinguistic circumstances. ESL proficiency heavily relies on sociolinguistic awareness or the knowledge of how language functions in various sociocultural contexts. The study combines quantitative and qualitative techniques to investigate this phenomenon thoroughly. The results show that sociolinguistic awareness and sociocultural competence, sociolinguistic adaptation, and total language competency among ESL learners are strongly positively correlated. This study highlights the transformative potential of incorporating sociolinguistic training into the ESL curriculum, giving students the tools to traverse various sociocultural environments successfully.
