This research aims to examine the factors that influence students' and teachers' creativity in speaking English. However, both non-native English students and teachers often face difficulties in this aspect. This research uses qualitative methods to identify factors that influence pronunciation in English for students and teachers. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and analysis. The findings of this research reveal that the influencing factors are the mother tongue, level of phonological awareness, practice habits, social interaction, and effective teaching methods. The influence of the mother tongue has proven to be an important factor in student and teacher pronunciation. Students whose native language has different sounds from English tend to have difficulty pronouncing these sounds accurately. The same applies to teachers with different mother tongues. The level of phonological awareness, which refers to the ability to distinguish and produce sounds in a language, also plays an important role in achieving good pronunciation. Students and teachers who actively engage in social interactions with native English speakers have a greater opportunity to improve their pronunciation skills. Lastly, effective teaching methods are important to improve student and teacher pronunciation.

This study investigates the impact of anxiety indicators on the speaking abilities of students in a bilingual junior high school setting, focusing on the challenges faced in English language usage within the classroom. Employing qualitative descriptive methods, including observations and interviews, the research encompassed 27 students and one English teacher. The analysis identified two predominant forms of anxiety affecting the students: a fear of making mistakes and a lack of self-confidence, which notably impaired their interaction in English with peers and educators. The study suggests implementing "English Day" activities as a strategic intervention to reduce linguistic anxiety and promote language skills, thereby improving students' communicative performance in English. This approach holds implications for enhancing language acquisition strategies in bilingual educational contexts.

The exploration of phraseological units through a cognitive semantic lens has garnered significant attention, revealing insights into how language reflects underlying cognitive structures. This study builds upon existing research by examining English and Uzbek phraseological units related to human intellectual abilities. Drawing on cognitive linguistic theories, including conceptual metaphor and image schemas, the research aims to uncover the cognitive semantic features embedded in these units. A comprehensive analysis reveals that both English and Uzbek phraseological units utilize metaphorical extensions, metonymic representations, image schemas, and conceptual metaphors to convey intellectual concepts. However, cultural and linguistic factors shape the expression of cognitive semantic features. English may employ diverse metaphors spanning different sensory experiences, while Uzbek might focus more on visual and physical metaphors. Cultural nuances influence expressions like "swallowed a book" in English and "kitob yutgan" (swallowed a book) in Uzbek, reflecting unique cultural experiences and values regarding knowledge acquisition. The study underscores the importance of considering cultural and linguistic factors in understanding cognitive semantics across languages. By examining both universal cognitive schemas and culturally specific expressions, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of how human intellectual abilities are conceptualized and articulated through language.
