Abstract

This article examines the significance of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in the professional training of ecotourism guides in Uzbekistan, specifically focusing on the Namangan region. As ecotourism grows, the demand for guides with specialized linguistic skills in flora and fauna terminology is increasing. The study identifies the gap between general English proficiency and the professional lexicon required to describe biodiversity, such as raptors, endemic species, and habitats. By providing practical examples like the Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), the author demonstrates how specialized terminology enhances the quality of guiding services and promotes environmental conservation.
