This article explores the functional role of various speech types in revealing the psychological world of characters in the works of the contemporary Uzbek writer Zulfiya Quroldoy Qizi. The study is grounded in the theoretical framework of speech typology developed in Uzbek and Russian literary scholarship, which includes dialogue, monologue, and polylogue, as well as their subtypes such as inner monologue, inner dialogue, and polyphonic speech. Through a close textual analysis of Quroldoy Qizi’s short stories Jealousy (Rashk), The Bride (Kelin), and Two Destinations (Ikki manzil), the article demonstrates how inner speech and dialogic forms serve as artistic tools for expressing women’s inner struggles, suppressed emotions, and social marginalization. It is argued that the author’s effective use of inner monologue and inner polylogue allows readers to access the silent, unspoken aspects of her heroines’ experiences. The study concludes that Quroldoy Qizi’s mastery of speech forms deepens the psychological realism of her narratives and contributes significantly to the development of psychologism in modern Uzbek prose.
